Faiveley

Faiveley Clos Rochette is a neighboring parcel of La Framboisière. The soils are particularly compact, hard to plow, strewn with small rocks giving their name to this climate. This plot has been a Monopoly of the Domaine since 1933.

The name of this 1er cru, a monopoly of Domaine Faiveley, probably comes from the English “My Land”, the name given to these places by an English dignitary. This clos produces a powerful, straightforward and balanced wine. 2021 is a fresh and balanced vintage. The volumes are low but the quality is exceptional.

Le Clos du Roy once belonged to the Kings of France. It was considered one of the best plots in the appellation. The Faiveley family acquired it in 1971. This wine could be compared to a village in the Côte de Nuits for the finesse of its tannins and its length in the mouth.

"La Favorite" is a parcel selection of Mercurey 1er Cru "Le Clos du Roy" from vines located on the south-east facing hillside.

The Montroziers pay homage to the ancestors of the Faiveley family who succeeded leading industrialists and statesmen at the beginning of the 20th century. In particular, Maurice Colrat de Montrozier, great-uncle and witness to the marriage of Guy Faiveley (5th generation) with Yvonne Faiveley in June 1945, which marked the unprecedented meeting of two worlds, that of wine...

The origin of the name of the appellation remains uncertain. This could possibly be an ancient form of pear trees. Located to the south of the village, the climate of "Porêts" can be compared to that of "Saint-Georges" in a slightly more rustic style. As early as 1855, this place was considered one of the best in Nuits by Doctor Lavalle. This vineyard is of great importance...

Located in the south-west of the village, this climat en Monopole was purchased by the estate in 2003 after a fifty-year lease. It is the smallest appellation in Burgundy - even smaller than Romanée-Conti.

Monopoly of the Faiveley family since 1874, the "Clos des Cortons Faiveley" is the flagship of the estate and one of the only two Burgundy Grands Crus bearing the name of its owner (along with Romanée-Conti). 2019 is a fresh and balanced vintage. The volumes are low but the quality is exceptional.

On their rock terrace, the Musigny and the Petits Musigny overlook the Clos de Vougeot, facing the rising sun. There was a Gallo-Roman settlement there whose owner was called Musinus, he gave his name to what would become one of the most prestigious terroirs in Burgundy. Ten owners now produce Musigny Grand Cru, Faiveley is the smallest with only 3 "ouvrées"
