The Vineyard was established in the 1950s by its eponymous founder, Georges Vernay. A pioneering French winegrower, his relentless commitment to quality and authenticity set a precedent for the unique and distinguished wines Domaine Georges Vernay is famed for today. Famed conserved but it also thrived, under the careful stewardship of Georges' daughter Christine who continued to uphold the winery's high standard of excellence while innovating new techniques to produce robust, characterful wines.

Home to several hectares of meticulously cultivated vineyards, Domaine Georges Vernay excels in producing nuanced Viognier, Syrah, and regional blends. The winery's commitment to organic farming ensures the essence of the finest terroirs is deeply imbued in every bottle. Their flagship viognier from the Condrieu appellation is greatly sought-after for its exotic fruit notes, graceful minerality and lustrous finish.

In addition to the first-class bottles, Domaine Georges Vernay offers guided tours, providing a distinctive insight into the magical process of viticulture. Wine connoisseurs often leave with a heightened understanding of their passion, invigorating their appreciation for wine; and more importantly the people and soul behind each sip, from vine to glass.

From the windswept hills of the Northern Rhône to your wine glass, the journey of a Domaine Georges Vernay bottle is entrenched in tradition, passion and the unyielding ambition, to create wines the world can savour. This captivating blend of qualitative authenticity makes it a much-revered destination for wine lovers' seeking a rhapsody in every pour.
