Category: Wine
Sub-Category: Red wine

Domaine Faiveley's Clos De Vougeot Grand Cru 2016 is a red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes in the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy, France. This Grand Cru wine is rich and complex with aromas of red and black fruits, spices, and subtle notes of oak. On the palate, it is full-bodied with flavors of black cherry, blackberry, and licorice, with well-integrated tannins and a long finish.

The 2016 vintage was characterized by a mild winter followed by a wet spring and a hot summer, resulting in healthy grapes with good ripeness and concentration. Domaine Faiveley practices sustainable viticulture and uses traditional winemaking techniques, including aging the wine in French oak barrels for 16 to 18 months.

This wine pairs well with rich and flavorful dishes such as beef, game, and strong cheeses. It can be cellared for up to 20 years to further develop its complexity and depth. Domaine Faiveley is a family-owned winery with a history dating back to 1825 and is known for producing high-quality Burgundy wines.
