  • Goedhuis, December 2021

    The family own 1.2 hectares of Clos de Vougeot positioned in three different spots: two are lower lying, the third in the middle of the Clos. Fortunately, they have a very good supply of ground water, which is so important in a drier year such as 2020. An array of tayberry, mulberry and blueberries, this is gorgeously scented. This wine has the classic power of the Clos and a firm central tannic core, carefully encased by the depth of sweet dark fruits. Very full and great length.

  • Neal Martin, December 2021, Score: 92-94

    The 2020 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru, comes from three parcels, two at the bottom and one in the middle) has a slightly ripe and more outgoing bouquet than the Echézeaux with wild strawberry, raspberry, touches of brown sugar and kirsch. Surprisingly sweet towards the finish, this almost overdelivers in terms of fruit, though it is just missing a little finesse on the finish. Still, it feels harmonious and minerally and I suspect will age well in bottle. Drink 2025 - 2048

  • Burghound, January 2022, Score: 92-94

    This is also aromatically restrained with its ripe mix of black and red raspberry, plenty of earth and discreet spice and wood wisps. I very much like the texture of the round, rich and markedly powerful big-bodied flavors that deliver outstanding length and solid depth on the compact finale where the only nit is a touch of warmth. Patience advised. Drink: 2035+

  • Jasper Morris MW, Janaury 2021, Score: 93-96

    A dense purple but not black. Deep dark fruit also on the palate, firm tannins, even a little youthful bitterness, which helps to tame the fact that the alcohol is a little bit higher here. Nothing dried out, this is just a Clos Vougeot on a relatively large scale.

More About Domaine Faiveley

This includes an eye-watering 12 hectares of Grand Cru and 27 hectares of 1er Cru. Eve and Erwan’s legacy is going to be exciting; they have already overseen the purchase of two domaines in the Côte de Beaune, including a parcel of Grand Cru Bienvenues and Bâtard Montrachet, as well as vineyards in Volnay and Pommard, and a further 20 hectares in Gevrey Chambertin, including Grand Cru Charmes Chambertin. On top of this, the completion of a new cathedral-styled winery in Nuits St Georges has moved the already excellent winemaking to a new level. Domaine Faiveley is firmly making its mark as one of the great names of the Côte d’Or.

Today the Faiveley signature seeks a combination of grape varietal purity and terroir identity. For the reds, the quality and intensity of fruit was so good in 2020 that Erwan was very cautious with the extractions at vinification time and favoured de-stalking the bunches for many appellations. The domaine’s stats for the vintage are quite something: 12 days of harvest, 300 harvesters for 300 different parcels producing 30,000 baskets of bunches filling 2,000 casks! Quite some figures and what is even more amazing is the extraordinary quality they have achieved through sheer attention to detail.
