Domaine Faury Description
Along the steep, narrow valley that traces the northern Rhône, the appellations of Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and Saint-Joseph take their place among the great wines of France, and Domaine Faury is one of the region’s most artisanal producers. When Philippe Faury took over the domaine in 1979, the family was selling wine, peaches and cherries, and the bulk of their clientele was local. Over the years, Philippe expanded their holdings to over eleven hectares, and expanded sales to an international client base. In addition, he has shared his savoir faire with his son, Lionel. In 2006, Lionel took over the reins at Domaine Faury, comfortably stepping into the role of vineyard and cellar manager to build off his father's hard work and take the domaine to new heights.
Vinous: 93 Points
I totally dig the 2022 Condrieu Le Mornieux, a Viognier of class and substance. Prominent apricot, quince, spring blossom, cedar, acacia, honey and ripe peach all race out of the glass. Rich and concentrated, the full-bodied 2022 checks out with persistence on the stone fruit- laden finish-a powerhouse.
