Domaine Faiveley, Latricieres-Chambertin 2014

The Latricieres-Chambertin from Faiveley is a magnificent glass … refined, quite delicate offering all the qualities of both the 2014 vintage and this fine terroir. The bouquet offer fine and detailed red and dark berry fruit – variations of cherries, raspberries and notes of red currant – infused with a nice detailed minerality. On the palate generous yet focused – fine balance with layers of filigree fruit on the mid-palate supported by a fine minerality – filigree almost silky – very refined for at Gevrey. What a delightful glass.

  During the Grand Jours de Bourgogne there is usually a Clos Vougeot tasting for the press; and so it was this year. It’s a good initiative, although some of the wines perhaps lacked the standard that one expects from a modern-day Clos Vougeot. The prices of grand cru Burgundy today somehow raise the consumer’s expectations ...
• Why not a white?
  White wines in hot years often carry a lot of weight; the grapes have perhaps had a bit of a harder go in the press, releasing more tannins. This, combined with the nature of Burgundy’s southern appellations (Macon and even Rully) can produce some rather imposing and quite tannic wines, as opposed to vivid, lively whites. These ...

Even more prominently, important plots in grands crus Batard-Montrachet and ...
