About this winery

Founded in 1825, Domaine Faiveley is one of Burgundy's greatest domaines. Originally the company was a classic negotiant business, based in Nuits St. Georges and engaged in the buying and selling of wine but not the production of it.

The 'classic' Clos de Bèze from Faiveley is blended from three parcels that total one hectare, all located in the centre of the climat. 'Serious but not severe' I wrote in my notes. The wine has admirable complexity and depth of flavour, with focused blackberry and mulberry fruit, notes of violets and peonies, ginger, star anise, and liquorice spice. There is all the lovely intensity and length of a top wine and enough freshness to keep it lively.

August 2024 (Vintage 2022)

Sleek, silky and bursting with energy and intensity, this red offers cherry, strawberry, rose, incense, graphite and oak spice aromas and flavors. Impeccably balanced, with ripe fruit, freshness and a discreet structure that lends plenty of support. The aftertaste goes on and on.

This is also terrific.

August 2023 (Vintage 2022)

A bit embryonic, but already deep with fine red berry aromas. In spite of the ample structure this moves gracefully over the palate. Then the turbo kicks in at the finish and races this off into the distance!
