Domaine Faiveley
Nuits-Saint-Georges "Les Montroziers"
This name pays tribute to the Faiveley family’s ancestors who were, in the early 20th century, industrial leaders and statesmen. Amongst them was Maurice Colrat de Montrozier, great uncle and witness to the marriage of Guy Faiveley (5th generation) and Yvonne Faiveley in June of 1945- an occasion that marked the coming together of two very different industries: wine and rail.

Intense garnet red hue and aromas of fruit, oak, and spice on the nose. The palate reveals a smooth, rich attack, velvety tannins, and good balance. A delicate, seductive, and very elegant wine.

"Complex nose in which floral and earth elements mingle with a hint of graphite. Impressive structure for a village wine, but also elegant thanks to the fine tannins. Long, velvety finish that's been expertly crafted.”
— Stuart Pigott, 2024
