When we talk about Burgundy, Domaine Faiveley is one of the very best addresses. This is a large family business with approximately 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 striking style, without any exception, wines are produced here that meet the ideal image of Burgundy. “A winery of very high quality, which represents the full glory of French viticulture,” writes the famous wine author duo Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve in France.
Domaine Faiveley combines the principles of modern winemaking methods with the time-honored traditions 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 a faithful reflection of its terroir. The village of Puligny-Montrachet is located between the well-known appellations Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet. This region has exceptional terroirs where Chardonnay is perfectly expressed. Although wine was already being grown here in the 12th century, the name of the Montrachet vineyard was not added to the village name Puligny until 1879. This wine region mainly produces white wines from Chardonnay.
The Faiveley Puligny-Montrachet has had a beautiful wood aging of 14 months, resulting in a beautiful complex wine. This Puligny-Montrachet has a seductive nose with aromas of white flowers, vanilla and hazelnut. On the palate, the wine opens with mineral notes that evolve into flavors of peach, exotic fruit and salted caramel.

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.
