Dom. Faiveley Latricieres Chambertin Grand Cru, Gevrey Chambertin, 2002 Red Wine, 75cLBy Winebuyers

£150

1 x 75cl. The producer, Faiveley, was established as a merchant trading in wine in 1825. Over the generations, the family has accumulated vineyards, making Faiveley one of the largest landholders in Burgundy with 115 hectares. While 72 hectares may be in the Cote Chalonnaise producing fabulous wines of great value, there are 10 hectares of Grand Cru and 15 hectares of Premier Cru in some of the finest vineyards on the Cote, including Gevrey, Corton, Puligny, Chambolle, Nuits, Pommard, Volnay, Vosne Romanee, and Vougeot. These are the jewels in Faiveley's crown. Faiveley produced long ageing wines for the second part of the 20th century, often with more than a touch of aggression of tannins and rather rustic fruit. The 21st century has seen a massive transformation, and the wines now show more precision of fruit, with fabulous balance and finesse. These are pure and precise wines that clearly express their individual terroirs.
