Faiveley
The seventh generation of Faiveleys, siblings Eve and Erwan Faiveley, have transformed the winemaking. Their style retains the age-worthiness that defined the domaine, while coaxing out more youthful charm.
In general, the whites are simultaneously silky and muscular and the reds are exceptionally pure and elegant. Many show heightened aromatics and a softer feel on the palate. Village level wines were easy to enjoy immediately, and even most Premier Cru wines were showing themselves well after a brief introduction of air. The Grand Cru holdings were still built for the long haul, with power and intensity.
While there are changes afoot, the wines are still true to their roots. From vintage to vintage and village to village you’ll find that Faiveley’s bottlings will rank among the best. Buy with confidence.

Faiveley Aux Beaux Bruns, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru 2019 750ml Displayed Price: $179, that’s $170.05 at 5% off and $161.10 at 10% off, 15 bottles in stock now
James Suckling 94 points “An unusually firm and structured wine that breaks the mold for this village, usually associated with finesse and delicacy. Deep forest-berry aromas, but also savory and earthy notes. Imposing body that’s brimming with healthy tannins. Bright, mineral finish with excellent complexity.”
Faiveley Les Cazetiers, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 2015 750ml Displayed Price: $189, that’s $179.55 at 5% off and $170.10 at 10% off, 3 bottles in stock now
Wine Enthusiast 93 points “The tannins in this wine are firm and still prominent, giving both richness and aging potential. The fruit is full, weighty, packed with dark tannins and with firm concentration. This a dark, firm wine needs to age. Drink from 2024.”
Faiveley Les Cazetiers, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 2021 750ml Displayed Price: $235, that’s $223.25 at 5% off and $211.50 at 10% off, 6 bottles in stock now
Wine Spectator 94 points “Alluring for its exotic spice aromas and strawberry, cherry and floral flavors, this silky, inviting red is balanced, with vanilla and toasty oak notes lingering on the aftertaste. Approachable now, this should improve in the next year or two. Drink now through 2032. 56 cases imported.”
Faiveley Les Damodes, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 2019 750ml Displayed Price: $119, that’s $113.05 at 5% off and $107.10 at 10% off, 10 bottles in stock now
William Kelley-Wine Advocate 92-94 points “Aromas of cassis, plums, orange rind and spicy new oak preface Faiveley’s 2019 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes, a medium to full-bodied, deep and lively wine with a concentrated core of fruit, framed by powdery tannins. Concluding with a long, mineral finish, it’s another fine bottling from this cool, high-altitude and northeast-exposed site.”
Faiveley Les Porets-Saint-Georges, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 2019 750ml Displayed Price: $119, that’s $113.05 at 5% off and $107.10 at 10% off, 10 bottles in stock now
Wine Spectator 92 points “Aromas of spearmint and cinnamon accent the core flavors of black cherry and blackberry in this firm red, which is more linear on the finish, where dark fruit mingles with oak spice and mineral elements”
Faiveley Les Pruliers, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 2019 750ml Displayed Price: $99, that’s $94.05 at 5% off and $89.10 at 10% off, 2 bottles in stock now
Wine Spectator 92 points “Aromas of spearmint and cinnamon accent the core flavors of black cherry and blackberry in this firm red, which is more linear on the finish, where dark fruit mingles with oak spice and mineral elements. The tannins are a touch dry in the end. Best from 2025 through 2040.”
Faiveley Les Saint-Georges, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 2019 1.5L Displayed Price: $419, that’s $398.05 at 5% off and $377.10 at 10% off, 1 magnum in stock now
Neal Martin-Vinous 93-95 points “The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru is an equal blend from Faiveley’s own vines and contract growers, plus a barrel from the Hospices de Nuits. It has a very perfumed and floral bouquet of red berry fruit complemented by wilted violets and potpourri. The medium-bodied palate offers crunchy red berry fruit laced with balsamic. Quite energetic and well defined toward the harmonious finish, which leaves a tang of white pepper on the aftertaste. This is a superb Les Saint-Georges.”
Faiveley Latricieres-Chambertin Grand Cru 2022 750ml Displayed Price: $519, that’s $493.05 at 5% off and $467.10 at 10% off, 6 bottles in stock now
William Kelley-Wine Advocate 95-97 points “The 2022 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is once again one of the high points of the range chez Faiveley, wafting from the glass with aromas of raspberries, rose petals, Indian spices, blood orange and coniferous forest floor, followed by a full-bodied, ample and layered palate that’s cool, concentrated, vibrant and perfumed, concluding with a long, saline finish.”
Faiveley Clos des Myglands Monopole, Mercurey Premier Cru 2022 750ml Displayed Price: $64.50, that’s $61.28 at 5% off and $58.05 at 10% off, 11 bottles in stock now
Decanter 94 points “Faiveley’s monopole Clos des Myglands on the northern edge of the village has delivered a delightful wine in 2022, with a lovely raspberry and plum fruit character, and a hint of rose petals and earth. The wine has a pronounced sweetness and a gratifyingly silky texture on the palate. Jérôme Flous remarked that despite the lack of water in 2022, the vines of the Côte Chalonnaise had a noticeably lower pH than those of the Côte d’Or in general, which helps keep this lively and fresh. A genuinely delightful success. Drinking Window: 2025-2040. “
Faiveley Volnay-Santenots, Volnay Premier Cru 2019 750ml Displayed Price: $119, that’s $113.05 at 5% off and $107.10 at 10% off, 4 bottles in stock now
No reviews for the 2019 vintage. 2018 provided for reference.
Wine Spectator 93 points “Dark and concentrated, displaying blackberry, black cherry, tar and charred oak flavors. Feels rustic yet there is a solid core of fruit that emerges on the finish, along with a sweetness. Best from 2023 through 2038.”
