How does this wine taste?
How full and heavy the wine feels in your mouth, like the difference between skimmed milk and cream. More alcohol, sugar and oak ageing make a wine fuller.
The drying, grippy feel on your gums and tongue, as with strong tea. It comes from the skins and seeds of black grapes and from oak, and softens with age.
How much sugar you taste, from dry to sweet. Fruity is not the same as sweet: a dry wine can taste of ripe fruit.
How fresh and juicy the wine is: acidity makes your mouth water. High acidity tastes lively and refreshing, low acidity soft and round.

Wine features
The history of Domaine Faiveley dates back to 1825. The domain has been family-owned for 7 generations and is located in Nuits-Saint-Georges, in the heart of Burgundy. 127 ha Vineyards, spread over Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, of which 12 vineyards with Grand Cru classification, 25 with Premier Cru classification and 6 vineyards with a "Monopole" classification. The estate is managed by Erwan Faiveley, who keeps the work in the vineyards in-house to control the quality of the grapes. The hand-picked harvest is carefully transported to 19th century vaulted cellars located in Nuits-Saint-Georges. To make great Burgundies, Erwan Faiveley combines the principles of modern oenology with traditional aging in French oak barrels. All this contributes to the fact that Faiveley wines are highly regarded.
Zeer expressieve Pinot Noir met aroma's van pruim en sinaasappelschil, tonen van vanille en leem, een volle, vlezigene body met poederachtige tannines, heldere zuren en een lange minerale afdronk. Dankzij die combinatie van rijp fruit, levende zuurgraad en stevige maar verfijnde tannine staat de wijn prachtig bij gevogelte, lam, wild en rijpere kazen: denk aan geroosterde eend of kip met tijm en sinaasappel, gegrild of kruidachtig lamsvlees en hertenbiefstuk met jeneverbessen, of bij een gerijpte Comté of Gruyère die de mineraliteit en complexiteit van de wijn benadrukt.
