    The Domaine Joseph Faiveley vineyard stretches across clay-limestone soils, ideal for cultivating high-quality grape varieties. La Garenne, an emblematic Premier Cru of Puligny-Montrachet, benefits from optimal exposure and a microclimate conducive to the full development of the grapes. The vines, some several decades old, produce low-yielding bunches, thus concentrating aromas and minerality in each bottle. This unique terroir, shaped by centuries of cultivation, reflects the very essence of Burgundy.

    Owner and history

    Domaine Joseph Faiveley is currently managed by the Faiveley family, who continue a winemaking tradition spanning nearly two centuries. Passionate about their craft, the owners are dedicated to the continuous improvement of their wines. They prioritize environmentally friendly practices, incorporating sustainable farming methods and precise winemaking techniques. Their commitment to authenticity and excellence is reflected in every vintage, making this estate a must-visit for Burgundy enthusiasts.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Joseph Faiveley is a meticulous process that begins with the hand-harvesting of the grapes, ensuring their integrity. After gentle pressing, the juice is transferred to barrels for a slow and controlled fermentation. Aging lasts approximately 12 months, partly in oak barrels, a significant proportion of which are new. This method imparts aromatic complexity and an elegant structure to the wine. Racking is done without filtration, thus preserving the purity and richness of the terroir's expression.
