Domaine Nicolas Faure, Bourgogne Aux Argillieres 2014

The Nicolas Faure Bourgogne Les Argillieres 2014 is a gorgeous wine.  The nose is offering organic fruit very floral – whole cluster and relatively low SO2. It’s bursting with red and dark forest berries – very detailed and expressive. On the palate rich and weighty for this level … quite well structured … with a lovely expression of terroir. The fruit is detailed with fresh flavors of berries – as if you just picked the berries yourself. It gives you a sense of a direct link to the terroir – a very natural wine. Truly delightful juice.

  Nicolas Faure’s wines are, for me, perfect examples of vins d’émotion. They are not perfect wines, they are not technical wines, but they are wines of joy and pleasure, made for hedonistic indulgence with friends (good friends).

  Another chance to drink and enjoy this great 2014 aligoté. Nicolas Faure’s Bourgogne Aligoté La Corvee de Bully 2014 is for me one of the very best aligotés, with its almost grand-cru-like intensity. The nose remains pure and vibrant, with delicate white orchard fruits, slight hints of anise, and lovely, intense, finely grained minerality. ...
