    The Domaine Faiveley vineyard is situated on clay-limestone soils, typical of the Côte Chalonnaise. These rich soils allow the vines to develop deep roots, promoting optimal grape development. The region's temperate climate, with warm summers and cold winters, contributes to the harmonious ripening of the fruit. Each plot is carefully cultivated, respecting the cycles of nature to bring out the authentic character of the terroir.

    Owner and history

    Domaine Faiveley is currently managed by the Faiveley family, who continue to uphold the values ​​of this historic estate. With an unwavering passion for winemaking, they are dedicated to the continuous improvement of their practices and the exploration of new techniques. Their commitment to quality and sustainability ensures that each wine produced is a true representation of Burgundy's heritage, while remaining relevant to contemporary agricultural challenges.

    Vinification and aging

    The 2020 Mercurey Blanc is made according to Burgundian traditions. After hand-harvesting the grapes, they are gently pressed to preserve their aromas. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to ensure freshness, followed by partial aging in oak barrels, which impart a subtle touch of wood without masking the fruit's expression. This meticulous process creates a balanced wine, where each sip tells the story of its terroir.
