Domaine Faury, Condrieu Mornieux, 2023

Domaine Faury is a family-run estate known for its commitment to sustainable viticulture and traditional winemaking techniques. Lionel Faury, who leads the domaine, focuses on expressing the terroir of the Rhône's steep, granite-rich slopes. Lionel is determined to push his wines in to the front rank of the Northern Rhône’s top wines and this superb white is a shining example of him succeeding...

The "Mornieux" vineyard is situated on terraced slopes with optimal sun exposure, typical of the Condrieu region, and this 100% Viognier is full-bodied and luscious, with flavours of ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and a touch of honey. Balanced acidity provides freshness, and the mineral backbone adds finesse.

Pair with seared scallops or grilled prawns, creamy cheeses like Saint-Marcellin or Brie, or poultry in creamy sauces or dishes featuring aromatic herbs.
