A refined and expressive Grand Cru, the 2021 Clos de Vougeot from Domaine Faiveley captures the elegance and freshness of the vintage. The wine shows a deep ruby hue, opening with an aromatic bouquet of red cherry, wild strawberry, and raspberry, layered with rose petals, violets, and subtle spice, alongside a gentle touch of oak.
On the palate, it is silky yet structured, offering bright red fruit, plum, and delicate earthy nuances, with hints of licorice, spice, and mineral tension. The texture is refined and mid-weight, supported by fine, polished tannins and vibrant acidity, giving the wine precision and balance rather than power—typical of the cooler 2021 vintage.
The finish is long, clean, and persistent, with lingering notes of floral lift, spice, and fresh red berries, showing an almost ethereal and lifted character for this appellation.
