    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Faiveley is carried out with meticulous respect for Burgundian traditions. After hand-harvesting, the grapes are carefully sorted before being destemmed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled tanks, allowing for a gentle extraction of tannins. Aging in oak barrels lasts between 12 and 18 months, depending on the vintage, enriching the wine with subtle nuances and aromatic complexity. This meticulous process ensures that each bottle reflects the terroir and the soul of the estate.
