Domaine Philippe Faury 2004 Viognier (Condrieu)
- Online Exclusive
- $43
There’s a bit of barrique showing in this wine, but it’s nicely integrated with spice and floral notes. It’s also given the wine a plump midpalate that’s not overdone. Finishes very elegant and long. Drink now, although it should hold a few years.

Domaine Philippe Faury 2004 Syrah (Côte Rôtie)
- $47
This contains a fairly high proportion (10–15%) of Viognier, but still seems more tightly packed than Faury’s 100% Syrah Saint-Joseph. It’s riper, with more cherry-berry fruit and less meatiness, but still has great floral aromas and hints of pepper on the finish. Drink now–2015.

Domaine Philippe Faury 2004 Vieilles Vignes Syrah (Saint-Joseph)
- $26
Floral and meaty, yet also filled with rich cassis fruit. Wonderfully complex, with silky—dare I say Burgundian?—tannins. Great complexity; from 40-year-old vines.

Domaine Philippe Faury 2005 Syrah (Saint-Joseph)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
Faury has crafted a wonderfully quaffable Old World Syrah in '05, with scents of violets, cracked pepper and ripe blackberries, modest tannins and a crisp, clean finish. Drink now-2012. Imported by Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant.

Domaine Philippe Faury 2004 White (Saint-Joseph)
- $23
Minerally and spicy on the nose, but it’s rounded out on the palate by ripe melon flavors. The result is plump and medium-bodied, with persistent mineral notes on the finish.

Domaine Philippe Faury 2004 Syrah (Saint-Joseph)
- $25
Like the Vieilles Vignes bottling, Faury’s regular Saint-Joseph features great complexity—a wonderful perfume of flowers and spices. The difference is that this bottling is a little light in the mouth, almost ephemeral, but still long and flavorful on the finish. Drink now.
