Les Fils de Charles Favre - Sion

About the winery

Founded in 1944, Les Fils de Charles Favre is a legacy of personalities who have left their mark on the Valais wine world: Charles, René-Pierre, Benjamin, Hanny and Jean-Pierre. Their winery has always found the tastes, the words and the way to convey the passion that characterizes it.

Known as the "Petite Maison des Grands Vins" since the dawn of time, they have always stood out for the excellence of their wines.

Bred in different ranges with their own distinctive characters (Dame de Sion, Hurlevent, Favi, Collection F), their wines are the expression of the diversity of grape varieties and terroirs of this beloved Valais.

The brand-new tasting room in the heart of Sion, opening in summer 2023, is a magical place that invites you to explore the world of wine like never before. Whether you come as a small group or a large group, Espace F is designed to offer unforgettable tastings, in a striking location steeped in history.
