About the Winery:
In 1980, Quentin David decided to bring the winemaking vocation back to life at Château Favray. He had immediately converted it to accommodate vineyards. Today he has 15 acres in production with the potential of developing a further 50 in the coming years. His wine is recognised as being a fine example of Pouilly-Fumé evidenced by a litany of awards in recent years.
The winery is also certified by Terra Vitis, an environmental and CSR certification recognized by the French Ministry of Agriculture indicating a holistic environmentally-conscious approach towards viticulture.
