The winery is known for its exceptional Condrieu wines, which are made from the Viognier grape variety.

The winemaking process is traditional, with a focus on preserving the purity of the fruit and the terroir. The resulting wine is elegant and complex, with aromas of white flowers, apricot, and honey, and a rich, full-bodied palate. Domaine Faury Condrieu is a must-try for any wine lover looking for a high-quality, terroir-driven white wine.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This exquisite white wine from the Rhône Valley of France is a treat for any connoisseur.Aromas of ripe yellow fruit, white flowers and a hint of spice lead to flavors of melon, apple and apricot. The full body and good acidity make it a great food wine and its pleasing finish lingers on the palate. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for a few years to watch it develop even more complexity.

ORIGINS

Winery: Domaine Faury

Region: Rhone

The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.
