About this winery

Founded in 1825, Domaine Faiveley is one of Burgundy's greatest domaines. Originally the company was a classic negotiant business, based in Nuits St. Georges and engaged in the buying and selling of wine but not the production of it.

Excellent blackberry and black-cherry fruit, the balance of ripe fruit, fine tannins and lively acidity resulting in harmony that’s so attractive, the finish so refreshing. Roughly two-thirds of this cuvee comes from vineyards close to the border with Vosne-Romanee, the rest from slightly further south.

Expressive, this red is full of bright, juicy black cherry, black currant, violet, mineral and spice flavors. It's silky, with a layer of dense tannins underneath, followed by a long, fresh finish. Best from 2022 through 2036. 1,080 cases made, 150 cases imported. — BS

William Kelley, (Vintage 2018)

Mingling aromas of wild berry fruits and orange rind with nuances of smoked meats and loamy soil, Faiveley's 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges Village derives from over three hectares of vineyards owned by the house. It's medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, with a rounded, charming personality that reveals none of the stereotypical Nuits asperity

Assez compact, le nuits-saint-georges reste comprimé par son élevage. Sec et raide en finale, il peine à s'exprimer.
