    Producer

    The Domaine Faiveley vineyard stretches across sunny terraces, benefiting from a temperate continental climate. The soils, composed of limestone and clay, offer excellent drainage while retaining the moisture necessary for the vines. The Premier Cru Champ Gain, located in Puligny-Montrachet, is particularly renowned for its optimal exposure, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and develop unparalleled aromatic complexity. This harmony between soil and climate contributes to the unique character of the wines produced, true reflections of their terroir.

    Owner and history

    Currently managed by the Faiveley family, the estate is in the hands of Erwan Faiveley, a passionate advocate for the art of winemaking. His commitment to quality and respect for the environment is reflected in his sustainable farming practices. With deep roots in Burgundy, the Faiveley family continues to pass on its expertise and passion through each vintage, making the estate a must-visit in the region. Their vision is to produce wines that tell a story—the story of their terroir and their family.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Faiveley is a meticulous process, respecting Burgundian traditions. The hand-harvested grapes are gently pressed before fermentation. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled tanks, preserving the freshness and purity of the aromas. Aging occurs in oak barrels, some of which are new, to impart a subtle touch of oak. This aging method, lasting 12 to 18 months, allows the wine to develop its complexity while harmoniously integrating the oak notes. Each step is carefully considered to enhance the expression of the terroir.
