2022 Faiveley Corton Clos Des Cortons Grand Cru Faiveley, Cote d'Or

A brilliant intense purple. Immediately on the nose there is a nobility over and above anything else in the cellar. The fruit swells across the palate without losing its sense of identity. There is an equilibrium from perfect structure backing this intensity of fruit. Harmonious structure, well integrated oak and impressive length.

The 2022 Corton Grand Cru Clos des Cortons Faiveley is also a real success, unfurling in the glass with rich aromas of cherries, berries, peonies, licorice and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated palate that’s cool and stony, with a tightly wound core framed by sweet but chalky tannins. This will be long lived.

Beautiful nose of fresh Damson plums with a slew of delicate, spicy nuances. For anyone who thinks that great Burgundy must be delicate and silky, here is the firm and deeply structured answer to that one-sided viewpoint. Enormously stony wild herb character powers the extremely long, simultaneously firm and expressive finish. From organically grown grapes from a 2.88-hectare plot. Matured in 50% new oak and 50% once-used oak. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.
