Clos des Cortons Faiveley has been owned by the Faiveley family as a monopole since 1874. It is the domaine`s flagship wine and one of just two Burgundian Grands Crus to bear the name of its owner. The 2016 vintage is marked by a powerful and concentrated nose, exuding notes of black cherries and spices. The palate is rich and smooth, with great vitality and concentration. The finish is long and elegant.

The 2016 Corton Clos des Corton-Faiveley Grand Cru offers smudged red cherry and wild strawberry fruit on the nose, hints of vanilla pod and chalk emerging with time, attractive even if it requires more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity, although it feels just a little over-extracted compared to Taupenot-Merme’s Corton-Regnier, especially on the finish. Not bad overall, but it might have been better. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting. Neal Martin1st October 2019
