The name says it all! Here is the charming and filigree pinot noir the world expects from Chambolle-Musigny. Very fine tannins and excellent concentration are married to lively acidity that make this dance on your palate. The long, delicate finish doesn’t want to let go. Drink or hold.

Based in Nuits-St-Georges, the famous Domaine Faiveley was founded in 1825 and in more recent times, the domaine has greatly expanded its vineyards across the entire Côte d'Or. The grapes are entirely destemmed and fermented in a mix of new wooden vats for the top end wines and stainless steel for the lesser cuvees. Once notorious for being fairly austere, there has been less emphasis on extraction over the last ten years and the wines show increased freshness, purity of fruit and more judicious use of oak. A contender for one of the most improved domaines in Burgundy over the last decade.
