Founded in 1825, Domaine Faiveley is one of the largest domaines in Burgundy with a wide range of excellent wines that are elegant, complex and ageworthy. The domaine’s Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru comes from 1.26 hectares of vines planted as far back as 1940. From the excellent 2016 vintage this is a highly attractive release, hallmarked by ripe and juicy fruits and tight-knit structure. Perhaps a little too young still, this will be at its best after a further 2-3 years in bottle.
Vinous
(Faiveley vinified the old vines separately but then assembled them with the rest): Bright ruby-red. Alluring floral nose combines blackberry, black raspberry, violet and licorice. A savory and rather refined young Clos Vougeot, offering subtle notes of dark berries, flowers and earth rather than this grand cru's more typical black cherry and herb qualities. Nothing rustic about this highly promising Clos Vougeot!Stephen Tanzer1st January 2018
