Happy Birthday Faiveley! An amazing day celebratin

Happy Birthday Faiveley! An amazing day celebrating the 200th anniversary of Domaine Faiveley. A tasting in the morning of vintages ending in 5 going back to this sublime 1935. Then a brilliant and frequently emotional dinner. Francois Faiveley spoke wonderfully about the family and was given a spontaneous standing ovation for over five minutes.

And then this amazing news was announced. The family are donating a plot of Clos de Vougeot to the Hospices de Beaune, enough to make three barrels a year. A wonderful gift!

🚨NEW TASTING REPORT🚨

🍷Discoveries in the Côte de Beaune🍷

Read the full tasting report via the link in my bio.

‘This spring, I visited a few domaines which were new, or nearly new to me. They vary in size from the embryonic Domaine Briotet d’Aprigny to the much more substantial Vignobles Ludovic Pierrot which has emerged out of the former Domaine Michel Clair. Not included in this quartet is Domaine Emmanuel Sainson, based in La Rochepot in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, since his wines are all from the Beaujolais where he has taken over the Domaine Haut de la Combe in Juliénas on the retirement of Vincent Audras. I will attach those wines to my annual Beaujolais report.
Each of the four producers below make wines in interestingly different styles. I will leave you to work your way through them to see where you might find a match for new opportunities.’

I like to keep my visit to Domaine Saumaize-Michelin to the end of the day in case Roger Saumaize is feeling talkative…. Mind you, the wines can speak very nicely for themselves. This concludes my day in Vergisson. I continue to travel the length of Burgundy tasting this month, keep an eye out for more updates.

Charismatic Pierre-Henri Lassarat… with barrel cellar and tasting cellar to match! My fascinating day tasting in Vergisson is almost at a close.

Julien Barraud, another outstanding winemaker in Vergisson at Domaine Daniel & Julien Barraud, founded in 1905. Good traditions here, including vintage dates over the last 30+ years, framed in the second image.

My day in Vergisson is being well spent. So many fine growers here, not least Hervé and Nathalie Carrette of @domainecarrette.
