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.

In September 2012, the press discovered that the United Kingdom was soon to have an heir when the Duchess of Cambridge - Kate Middleton - declined a glass of our Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "La Garenne".

Stephen Tanzer, 2018 (Vintage 2017)

Jaune pâle. Le nez captivant associe une touche de citron, ananas, pierre poussiéreuse, poivre blanc, fleurs et menthe. Bien enrobée et plus salé que sucré. Très minéral et précis grâce à son terroir frais et élevé. Ce vin vif et intense se termine en longueur et avec vivacité avec une note de pierre concassée.
