The 2020 Domaine Faiveley Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a distinguished Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most historic and recognised Grand Cru vineyards. Sourced from carefully positioned parcels within the famed walled Clos de Vougeot, this wine reflects the scale, depth and structure for which the appellation is renowned, while showcasing Domaine Faiveley’s precise and terroir-focused winemaking approach.
The nose is complex and inviting, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and plum layered with notes of violet, forest floor, spice and subtle oak. On the palate, it is concentrated and beautifully structured, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity and impressive depth of flavour. Dark berry fruit, earthy nuances and mineral undertones unfold across a long, persistent finish that balances power with elegance.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Grand Cru Burgundy for collectors and Pinot Noir enthusiasts seeking a wine with both immediate appeal and long-term cellaring potential. Pair with roast duck, game birds, beef Wellington or wild mushroom dishes. While approachable with careful decanting, this wine is built to evolve gracefully over the next 15–20 years and beyond.
