The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A historic estate and one of Burgundy’s true icons, Faiveley has long stood at the heart of the region’s winemaking tradition. Under the leadership of Erwan Faiveley, the estate has reached new heights, elevating its legacy with precision and passion. Its holdings — small plots on some of the finest slopes of the Côte d’Or — represent an extraordinary heritage that the family is deeply committed to expressing in all its nuance.

Whether from the Côte de Nuits or the Côte Chalonnaise, Faiveley’s wines reflect mastery and depth. They are complex and refined, firm yet elegant, always guided by clarity and precision — wines that embrace time with remarkable grace.
Wine Delicately floral, the 2023 Montagny Les Cent Pièces White is defined by a restrained, well-integrated aging process that lets its expressive fruit aromas shine through. On the palate, it’s vibrant and mineral-driven, with a fresh, balanced profile and just a whisper of oak influence — delivering a lively, approachable Chardonnay with real charm.
Vinification Hand harvested. Pneumatic pressing and settling. Alcoholic fermentation for 4 weeks, followed by 16 months' ageing with stirring of the lees: 80% in vats and 20% in French oak barrels, 10% of which are new.
Vineyards of 4 ha, 89 a, 64 ca and 9.88 acres, planted 1991 and 1995.
