2022 Domaine Faiveley Ladoix Les Marnes Blanches

When it comes to Burgundy, Domaine Faiveley is one of the very best addresses. This is a large family estate with around 120 hectares of vineyards, including famous names such as Gevrey-Chambertin, Pommard, Volnay, Puligny-Montrachet and Chablis Grand Cru.

However, it is also a family winery 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 winery 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 winery of very high quality, which represents the full glory of French winemaking art”, write the famous French wine author duo Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve.

Domaine Faiveley combines the principles of modern winemaking methods with the time-honored 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.
