A Pommard 1er cru wine that is ample and expressive
The estate
Founded in 1825 by Pierre Faiveley in the village of Nuits, the Joseph Faiveley house is one of the most beautiful references of the Côte de Nuits. Today led by Erwan & Eve Faiveley, 7th generation of the family, the Domaine Faiveley offers enthusiasts a superb range reflecting the entire mosaic of Burgundian terroirs with precision.
The vineyard
If the Faiveley estate was historically located in Côtes de Nuits at Nuits-Saint-Georges, the house has gradually extended its vineyard in Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise. The Faiveley estate now owns 12 Grands Crus and 25 Premiers Crus in Burgundy and oversees an exceptional heritage of vines.
The wine
The Pommard 1er cru "Les Rugiens" from Domaine Faiveley is made from a 0.51 hectare plot facing east, with soil composed of scree and marls rich in iron oxide. This climate, considered one of the most beautiful in Pommard, is divided into two parts. The one acquired in 2007 by Domaine Faiveley is the most renowned.
Vinification and aging
The manually harvested grapes undergo a short pre-fermentation cold maceration before vinification. Maceration of more than 3 weeks followed by pressing to obtain juices of great purity. Aging from 14 to 16 months within the vaulted cellars dating from the 19th century. The proportion of new barrels varies according to the vintages.
Blend
Pinot noir (100%).
