Domaine Faiveley
Founded in 1825, Bourgognes Faiveley has been handed down from father to son for over 175 years. As the sixth generation to take the reins, François Faiveley manages, with equal amounts passion and competence, the largest family domaine in Burgundy. Methodically reconstructing vineyards fractured by French inheritance laws, Bourgognes Faiveley today owns more appellations in their entirety (monopoles) than any other domaine in Burgundy.
Description
One of the best Clos-de-la-Roche wines we taste from the 2017 vintage, not because it was a weak year in this fabulous Grand Cru; this offering from Faiveley simply stood out. Loads of bright red fruit and a fresh profile made for a very compelling wine. Excellent structure and balance as well will certainly give this many profitable years in the cellar.
Food Pairing
Beef, Veal, Game (deer, venison), Poultry
