Domaine Faiveley
Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Les Saint Georges
“Les Saint-Georges” is considered to be one of the oldest climats in Bourgogne and was planted in the year 1000. It is also thought to be the very best Cru in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Our Domaine is the appellation’s smallest producer and, for the last 10 years, we have been working towards being reclassified as a Grand Cru.

Deep ruby red hue. Powerful nose disclosing ripe fruits and warm spicy notes. A smooth, clean attack gives way to a well-balanced palate with rich, smooth tannins. This wine’s harmonious structure and elegance perfectly represent this Premier Cru.

“Sweet spices frame the core of cherry, blackberry, boysenberry, iron and sandalwood aromas and flavors. Supple and rich, with a firm base of tannins and bright acidity for support.”
— Bruce Sanderson, 2024
