One of the largest and most respected producers in Burgundy, Faiveley is now on its seventh generation and is still growing. Known for consistent quality and its huge range of appellations, this family company has it all. With each new generation comes a difference in wine making style but critical acclaim is always the same. White or red, estate or negociant, Faiveley is a winner.
Tasting Notes
- WE94
- A firmly structured wine, packed with fruit, acidity and complex tannins. It is powerful, dark and rich with great weight to balance the dry, smoky character from wood aging. It's impressive, concentrated with a touch of licorice and spice that cuts through the acidity. Drink from 2020.
- BH92–94
- A strikingly cool, restrained and very floral nose also offers up superbly elegant red currant and wet stone nuances where the latter element completely suffuses the medium weight flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension on the focused, precise and driving finish. There is plenty of mouth coating dry extract but even so, this is presently austere to the point of being Cistercian and as such note well that plenty of patience will be required as this is very firmly structured. Points Range: 92-94
