Description

France / Burgundy / Côte de Beaune / Meursault

In 1825, the wine enthusiast shoemaker Pierre Faiveley founded a small wine merchant business Nahe Dijon. In the third generation, Georges Faiveley took over the management of the family business. Today, he is considered one of Burgundy's great winemaking legends, as he and his friend Camille Rodier founded the "Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin" – still the most active and arguably most famous wine brotherhood in the world. The plots cultivated by the Faiveley family in Meursault offer an excellent terroir for exceptional Chardonnays.

Domaine Faiveley

Domaine Faiveley is one of Burgundy’s great style-defining family estates. In family ownership since 1825, the house today combines traditional craftsmanship with modern precision in its seventh generation and farms one of the region’s largest and most diverse portfolios of sites.

With vineyards from the Côte de Nuits to the Côte de Beaune, including numerous Grands Crus such as Corton, Clos de Vougeot and Chambertin-Clos de Bèze, Faiveley embodies the full aromatic range of Burgundy. Careful vineyard work, low yields and gentle ageing emphasise the individual character of each parcel.

Stylistically, Faiveley wines stand for density, clarity and finesse: structured, long-lived Pinot Noirs with depth and clear, mineral white wines with strong expression.

Domaine Faiveley is an estate that not only preserves Burgundy’s identity, but carries it into the future with energy and precision – a family producer of impressive consistency and a signature appreciated by connoisseurs worldwide.

Origin in Focus

Burgundy

The Burgundy (Bourgogne) wine region is shaped by small parcels and historic vineyards. The focus here is on two grape varieties – Pinot Noir and Chardonnay – which reflect soil, climate and craftsmanship with exceptional transparency.

Between Dijon and Mâcon, a narrow band of vineyards stretches for around 250 km, each with its own distinctive character.
