Still of great import to Burgundy, the Domaine Faiveley began its two-century existence as a negociant, only to quickly realize their future lay in vineyard ownership. Today, they are one of the largest owners of Burgundian vineyards - some 120 hectares - and, yes, do make some negociant wines; and yet, the Domaine is entirely owned by two members of the original Faiveley family. For a sense of the well-honed sense of authenticity, finesse & depth, try the 2022 Corton Grand Cru, Clos des Cortons Faiveley,the best representation of the house given its 150-year ownership by the Faiveleys - a true epitome of "classic" for a reason.

Domaine Faiveley

After celebrating their bicentennial in 2025, the Domaine Faiveley remains as a true standard-bearer of Burgundian estates. From the first vineyard purchase in 1834, the Nuits-Saint-Georges-based estate set itself apart from other negociants and today continues to do so by remaining wholly owned by the very same family. 

Erwan Faiveley and his two sisters oversee all parts of business and production, Erwan having succeeded his father Francois in 2014. What came to turn at that time was a changing not only of the guard, but of the overall breadth and style. Erwan pared down the offerings, truly focusing on only their most special vineyards and those with longstanding connections to the estate. His tastes were also quite different from those of his father - Francois favored the classic Nuits-Saint-Georges styles:  very tannic, savory and dense wines - and today Faiveley's wines are downright pretty, suave and more compelling than any in memory. 

While the wines of yesteryear have stood the test of time - that tannin acted very much as a preservative of sorts - the styles today favored by keen drinkers fall much in line with Erwan's tastes. With both a  talented winemaker and vineyard manager now in tow, Erwan's belief in the resulting wines has compounded. Effects like that of gravity flow (rather than pumps), hand-sorting and judicious use of new oak have rung in a new chapter of what is a true classic.

The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes has turned out beautifully, bursting with aromas of plums, cherries, orange zest and spices. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and vibrant, it's pure and precise, with melting tannins and an enveloping core of perfumed fruit.

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Damodes 1er Cru showed just a little reduction on the nose. This does not occlude the florality that ekes out with aeration (unsurprising given its location on the Vosne border). The palate is medium-bodied with quite racy tannins, a citrus-fresh Damodes, linear and maybe a little lean towards the finish but persistent in the mouth. Give it a couple of years in bottle.
