Nestled unassumingly on a quiet street in beautiful Nuits St Georges, Faiveley, headed by the suave and welcoming Erwan, is quite an operation. One of the truly great, historic domaines of Burgundy, with stunning cellars and many glorious holdings from Gevrey to Pommard, via some brilliant Grands Crus, Erwan and his new team have everything that a Burgundian could desire. Traditionally, the Faiveley style was uncompromising but while still unquestionably making some of the longest-lived wines in the Côte, there is today far more finesse and precision in evidence, pointing to a more careful and up-to-date approach.

More delicate than the Corton Charlemagne, this wine has an expansive bouquet of bright citrus fruits mingled with white flowers, honeysuckle and freshly cut almonds. A hint of butter and spice adds another layer. On the palate, a lovely sweet citrus character is balanced by an energetic freshness with a delicate seasoning of nutmeg and spices on the finish. Beautifully...
