Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Sourced from vines abutting Côte-Rôtie, Faury’s L’Art Zélé is a textbook northern Rhône Syrah. It displays dark berry, violet and olive character, along with a spicy pepper nuance and sharp delineation on a very long, tangy finish. Faury is among the region’s brightest young stars.

Great value. Young Syrah vines planted on a plateau just beyond AOC boundary for Cote Rotie. Acidity confirms the vintage, bright with tart fruit that works well with food. Peppercorn, crushed rocks, violet, light savory notes. Delicious and example for N. Rhône Syrah.

150ft from Côte-Rôtie, younger vines. This is expressive: blueberries, minerals, clay, rocks, black pepper, forest floor, salami. Great acid with fine grain tannin.
