2019 Domaine Faiveley Mazis Chambertin Grand Cru Magnum

When it comes to Burgundy, Domaine Faiveley is one of the biggest addresses. This is a family business with around 120 hectares of vineyards, including famous names such as Gevrey-Chambertin, Corton, Montrachet's, Echezeaux and many more.

However, it is also a family estate with 10 hectares of Grand Cru and almost 25 hectares of Premier Cru. The first step was taken in 1825 by Pierre Faiveley; his son Joseph turned the estate into a great top company and his wines became ambassadors of Burgundy wines all over the world. With a clear, elegant and distinctive style, they produce wines here without exception that meet the ideal image of a Burgundy. “A very high quality estate, which represents the full glory of French winemaking art”, write the famous French wine writing duo Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve. Domaine Faiveley combines the principles of modern winemaking methods with the age-old traditions that have been practiced for centuries in their 19th century cellars. Each terroir and each vintage benefits from special attention that makes the cuvées unique. Each bottle therefore becomes the faithful reflection of its terroir.

The vineyards, which cover 1.55 ha, are planted on both the upper and lower slopes of Mazis. The shallow soils – mainly Premeaux limestone – combined with a low clay content, produce a seductive wine full of vitality and depth. A wine with considerable intensity in its youth, it bursts into the mouth with a wealth of fruity flavours. Sometimes delicate and fragrant, sometimes wilder and more masculine, its character is determined by the vintage. Mazis-Chambertin is an excellent wine that is worth cellaring and which gradually reveals its complexity over the years. The vines were planted in 1945, 1959, 1974 and 2020. Woody, spicy and red fruit aromas dominate the nose. The same exquisite flavours blend harmoniously on the palate. Well-integrated, supple tannins contribute to a persistent and pleasant finish. The wine is balanced, fine and elegant.
