From the producer: This terroir gives rise to a silky, low-tannin wine with feminine elegance. On the nose, it reveals expressive aromas of black fruits, spices, as well as subtle toasted and roasted nuances. When tasted, it surprises with its freshness and liveliness, sometimes reminiscent of a white wine.

Faiveley is an Iconic Domaine in the best sense of the term. They have both history and pedigree (almost 200 years and 7 generations old), but also innovation as current managers Erwan and Eve Faiveley look to the future. For years, they were considered one of the large, but high quality, negociants in Burgundy – companies that source grapes from third-party growers for wine production. But now they are a true domaine, with many prized holdings in Burgundy, farmed organically, that yield some of the region’s most sought-after wines.

Professional Reviews

"Spicy aromas of dark raspberry, cherry and earth give way to impressively voluminous yet sleek middle weight flavors that display lovely delineation on the austere finish. This possesses good if not stunning length as it eventually falls off due to the fact that the tannins become a bit angular. With that said, I suspect that the overall sense of harmony will improve as the tannins resolve."

"Aromas of cassis, plums, orange rind and spicy new oak preface Faiveley's 2019 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes, a medium to full-bodied, deep and lively wine with a concentrated core of fruit, framed by powdery tannins. Concluding with a long, mineral finish, it's another fine bottling from this cool, high-altitude and northeast-exposed site." -Robert Parker

Wine Enthusiast

"This wine presents dominant aromas of oak spice shielding a soft red fruit layer. On the palate, fresh cherries are lightly dusted with cinnamon and coriander spice. Its dark grippy tannins hint that cellaring would be beneficial, as it requires quite a bit of time in the glass to blossom."
