Founded in 1825 in the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Faiveley is one of the most distinguished producers in Burgundy. Currently run by seventh-generation Eve and Erwan Faiveley, the estate owns 10 hectares of grand cru vineyards out of a total of 115 hectares. This release is the domaine’s 2020 Corton-Charlemagne, a solar vintage which produced wines with remarkable freshness. It’s a fruit-driven expression, with additional floral notes and a touch of oak.
Vinous
The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is well-defined on the nose with apple blossom, hazelnut and light white chocolate scents. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, quite taut and linear, saline in the mouth. Maybe a bit more weight here would not go amiss, but I appreciate the energy that should hold it in good stead. Neal Martin1st December 2021
