Faiveley, Bienvenues-Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2017

Faiveley

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 18.0

Domaine Faiveley is one of the largest and most illustrious domaines in Burgundy. In 1700, Major Intendent Ferrand advised the Duke of Burgundy by informing him that the kingdom’s best wines were grown in this province, Montrachet. The Faiveley family purchased this parcel in 2008 at the same time as the Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru parcel. Pale, clear yellow colour and an elegant yet powerful nose combining white and yellow fruits, white flowers (acacia and orange blossom) and freshly baked brioche. The palate is delicate yet distinctive and characterised by aromas of stewed fruits and candied lemon. The finish is fresh and lively with exceptional length.

Cloudy sample. The aroma makes me want to both eat and drink this. Ripe, fragrant, delicately spiced pears. Super-tangy, elixir of youth but with the concentration and breeding immediately obvious. Deep, long and with the oak evident at this moment but just right for the fruit concentration. (JH)

Wafting from the glass with notes of fresh peach, pear, lemon curd, nougat and white flowers, Faiveleys 2017 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with a textural attack, fine depth at the core and a chalky, nicely defined finish.
