Producer & Terroir
Founded in 1825 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Faiveley brings generations of Burgundian experience to its small parcel in Les Frémiets. Erwan Faiveley and his sister Eve continue the family's legacy alongside Technical Director Jérôme Flous, with an emphasis on balance, purity and vineyard expression.
Bordering Pommard, this Volnay Premier Cru offers a distinctly graceful expression of Pinot Noir. Faiveley's 0.74-hectare parcel sits mid-slope with eastern and southeastern exposure and well-drained clay-limestone soils. Plantings from 1950 and 2014 bring together mature-vine depth and fresh fruit expression.
Winemaker Description
Winemaker's Notes, as supplied in the listing: An exquisite expression of Premier Cru Burgundy, Domaine Faiveley Volnay Frémiets 2023 captures the remarkable finesse, aromatic complexity and velvety texture that distinguish the finest Pinot Noirs of the Côte de Beaune.
Beautiful ruby-red in color, this sophisticated Burgundy reveals an enchanting bouquet of ripe red cherries, wild raspberries and delicate dark berries, accented by subtle spice, gentle floral notes and a refined touch of oak.
On the palate, succulent red and black fruits unfold with elegance and precision. Fine, silky tannins create a luxurious, almost weightless texture, while refreshing acidity lends vibrancy and balance. Gentle spice and delicate earthy nuances add complexity, leading to a beautifully harmonious, lingering finish.
Refined rather than powerful, this exceptional Premier Cru showcases the seductive, graceful personality of Volnay, offering aromatic intensity, beautiful structure and remarkable finesse.
Winemaking
Careful fruit selection, thoughtful fermentation and controlled extraction emphasize the vineyard's delicate aromatics and fine tannins. Carefully managed maturation preserves the wine's vibrant fruit and graceful texture.
Pairing & Serving
Pair with roasted duck breast, herb-roasted chicken, veal tenderloin, mushroom risotto or rabbit with mustard sauce. Its supple texture also complements delicate game dishes and refined French cheeses. Serve at 57–61°F (14–16°C).
