2015 Collines Rhodaniennes Syrah “l’Art Zélé”

Domaine Faury
Discount Eligible $32.00
SOLD OUT
At times it strikes me that Lionel Faury is out to conquer the world, although he himself seems unaware of it. He has certainly captured the heart of every salesperson at KLWM since he took over from his father, Philippe, who was already an icon in our eyes. This is the latest Faury wine we have introduced to the range we import, and thus it’s probably the least well-known, although that’s not going to last very long. From a parcel of vines on the plateau above Côte Rôtie, it is of course made from Syrah and has more in common with the domaine’s Côte Rôtie from Côte Brune than with its Saint Joseph. Buyers will receive a lot of wine for the price.

Kermit inspecting wine barrels

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
