Description

This Clos, which captures all the complexities of the Burgundy wine region, is divided among 82 owners. This domain contains 3 parcels of this emblematic Clos, two of which run from the bottom and extend to the middle of the Clos, while the third is located in the heart, close to the Château Vougeot. The parcels at the bottom of the Clos benefit from deep, marly soils that retain moisture and avoid water stress, making them ideal in dry years. This results in a wine that reflects the full depth and purity of the Burgundy terroir. It embraces a monastic, austere, almost 'intellectual' style, intended for aesthetes and connoisseurs of the more serious Pinot Noir, without complacency or easy charm. Beautifully rustic, elegantly austere, this wine will gain depth and colour over time. The vines were planted in 1940, 1974, 1980, 1981 and 2013. This wine displays a complex aromatic bouquet in which delicate floral notes reminiscent of roses and violets mingle with fruity notes and are complemented by subtle woody accents. On the palate, the initial soft and fleshy sensation leads to increasingly powerful tannins. Robust structure, generous body and persistent flavours combine to produce a wine worthy of this famous Grand Cru.

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.
