Domaine Faiveley, Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, 2017
Top-tier Morey Grand Cru from one of Burgundy's oldest négociant-domaines, in a classical vintage. Founded in 1825 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Faiveley is now in the hands of seventh-generation Erwan Faiveley, with Jérôme Flous as technical director since 2007 — the partnership behind a remarkable quality renaissance. Clos de la Roche is the largest and most structured of the Morey-Saint-Denis Grands Crus, sitting on the Gevrey border with deep limestone soils that give wines a foundation more powerful than its neighbors. 2017 was the kind of classical Côte de Nuits vintage that rewards patience: balanced ripeness, transparent fruit, and the architecture to evolve gracefully. Eight years on, this is settling into its first plateau — the primary fruit beginning to give way to the savory complexity that Grand Cru Burgundy promises.
