Domaine Faiveley 2010 Pinot Noir (Mazis-Chambertin)

Cellar Selection

Price $290

Rich, yet always elegant, this has a raspberry flavor and terrific acidity that creates tension, contrasting with the opulent fruit. While it’s structured, it will soften and round out over the next five years. — R.V. (11/1/2012)

Domaine Faiveley 2010 Pinot Noir (Echézeaux)

Cellar Selection

Price $225

Very structured and firm, this has the weight, richness and power that is typical of Echézeaux. It’s the tension between the tannins and the ripe black fruits that give this wine its great aging ability and depth of flavor. It needs at least six years. — R.V. (11/1/2012)

Domaine Faiveley 2010 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)

Cellar Selection

Price $385

One of the jewels of Domaine Faively, this wine is huge, rich and structured. It has power and concentrated tannins, and the hints of wood aging are apparent. The ripeness of the fruit and the serious texture promise long-term aging. — R.V. (4/1/2013)

points

Domaine Faiveley 2009 Clos des Cortons Faiveley Pinot Noir (Corton)

Cellar Selection

Price $200

While the aroma has pronounced new wood characters, the palate is more subtle, emphasizing the powerful dark fruits, coffee note and sweet fruit tannins as much as wood. With a delicious, opulent full-bodied feel to it, this will age well over 5–6 years and more. — R.V. (12/31/2011)

Domaine Faiveley 2010 Clos des Cortons Faiveley Pinot Noir (Corton)

Cellar Selection

Price $215

It’s rare in Burgundy that a producer can add his name to a vineyard, but Faiveley’s tradition goes back at least a century. This is huge and dense; the notes of spice, sweet black plum and acidity are all comfortably balanced with the powerful tannic structure. This needs at least seven years of aging. — R.V. (11/1/2012)

Domaine Faiveley 2006 Clos des Myglands Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Mercurey)

Cellar Selection
Online Exclusive

Price $46

This single-vineyard monopoly produces impressive wine, some of the best in the Mercurey region. This 2006 is no exception, a finely structured wine that shows dry tannins, only the faintest hint of wood, and plenty of rich ruby fruit flavors: red plums and berries. Worth aging for 5–10 years. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd. Cellar Selection. — R.V. (10/1/2009)

points

Domaine Faiveley 2007 Pinot Noir (Corton)

Cellar Selection

Price $180

Always right at the top of Faiveley’s wines, this is an impressive bottle for 2007. It has weight, a seamless texture that passes from firm tannins to sweet fruit. The acidity, which fits into the arc of the wine, and the tannins promise aging over many years. — R.V. (7/1/2010)

points

Domaine Faiveley 2009 Les Damodes Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Nuits-St.-Georges)

Price $90

A beautifully ripe wine, with the new wood just a hint in the background. The wine has rich red plums and black cherries, laced with the most intense acidity. It is a dense, firmly concentrated wine with a long ahead. — R.V. (5/1/2012)
