Faiveley , a centuries-old house with 1 star in the RVF Guide, is one of the icons of great Burgundy. Erwan Faiveley has taken the helm and raised it to its highest level. The smallest plots, the most beautiful hillsides of the Côte d'Or are a priceless heritage that the company makes a point of exploring to the full.
Whether on the Côte de Nuits or the Côte Chalonnaise, Faiveley remains a master of its art, producing complex, refined wines, both firm and elegant, that play on straightness and precision, and face time in the most wonderful way.
