    Producer

    The Domaine Faiveley vineyard stretches across several hectares in Nuits-Saint-Georges, benefiting from a continental climate ideal for viticulture. The soils are primarily clay-limestone, offering excellent drainage and a mineral richness that is passed on to the grapes. This diversity of terroirs allows for the production of wines with varied profiles, while preserving the authenticity of each appellation. The vines, some several decades old, are cultivated with care, promoting sustainable and environmentally friendly viticulture.

    Owner and history

    Today, the estate is run by the Faiveley family, who have been perpetuating a tradition of excellence for nearly two centuries. The current owners, with their passion for wine and their commitment to quality, strive to maintain the family heritage while adapting to contemporary challenges. They have modernized certain practices while respecting the traditional methods that have made their wines famous. Their vision is clear: to produce authentic wines that reflect the Burgundy terroir, while preserving the harmony between nature and culture.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Faiveley is a meticulous process, blending tradition and innovation. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted before being destemmed. Fermentation takes place in wooden vats, allowing for gentle tannin extraction and a harmonious integration of aromas. Aging occurs in oak barrels, a percentage of which are new, adding further complexity to the wine. This process respects the terroir's identity while allowing the grapes' aromatic potential to fully express itself. Each cuvée is the fruit of expertise passed down through generations.
