On my November 2018 trip I had the opportunity to visit Domaine Faiveley to taste the 2017 vintage.
We were received at the now finished new Chai in Nuits-Saint-Georges by Erwan Faiveley who was ready with the best of the 2017s.

I have already covered the vineyards: Aux Réas Clos des Réas Aux Bas ...
