    The Domaine Faiveley vineyard stretches across carefully selected plots within the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. The vines, some several decades old, benefit from an ideal microclimate, with warm days and cool nights, promoting slow and even ripening of the grapes. The clay-limestone soils, typical of the region, impart minerality and structure to the wines. Environmentally friendly viticultural practices optimize vine health while preserving the authenticity of the terroir.

    Owner and history

    Domaine Faiveley is currently managed by the Faiveley family, who have successfully navigated the changing times while maintaining the integrity and quality of their wines. Today, Erwan Faiveley, representing the seventh generation, passionately leads the estate. His commitment to excellence and respect for winemaking traditions is central to the family philosophy. Under his guidance, the estate continues to innovate while remaining true to its roots, producing wines that reveal the very best of Burgundy.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Faiveley is a skillful blend of tradition and modern techniques. The grapes are harvested by hand, ensuring rigorous selection. After partial destemming, the berries are placed in vats for a slow fermentation, which promotes the extraction of aromas and tannins. The wine is then aged in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 14 months. This meticulous process refines the aromas and imparts a delicate oak influence, while preserving the terroir's unique character.
