Product Details

Code: FAIV004

Domaine Faiveley is one of the largest and most illustrious domaines in Burgundy, and has made its name with red wines made from the Pinot Noir grape. It was founded in 1825 in the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges under Joseph Faiveley, a wine merchant who had a desire for travel. In the beginning of the 19th Century, trade had begun between Burgundy and northern Europe, predominantly along the rivers and canals connecting the regions.

Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze is a prestigious Grand Cru vineyard at the northern end of the Côte d'Or. It is planted entirely to Pinot Noir. The site makes a wine that is perfumed, full-bodied, concentrated and structured, and worthy of being aged for many years. Alone, the Clos-de-Bèze covers 15 hectares (37 acres) of land. The soils here are similar to in Chambertin, made up of pebbly, free-draining limestone with a good proportion of clay.

Deep ruby red hue with purplish glimmers. The complex nose offers a combination of fruit, spice and floral notes. The lively palate displays exceptional tension, elegant tannins, a hint of white pepper and menthol notes. Les Ouvrées Rodin is an intense, deep, smooth, elegant and subtle wine and a perfect reflection the character of its historical terroir.
