Domaine Faiveley's Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru "La Combe Aux Moines" 2018 is a red wine from the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation in Burgundy, France. The wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown on Premier Cru vineyards and was aged in French oak barrels for about 16-18 months.

This wine has a vibrant ruby color and offers an intense aroma of black cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, it is well-structured with firm tannins and flavors of red and black fruits, combined with notes of earth, leather, and tobacco. The wine has a long and lingering finish.

This vintage was marked by a mild winter followed by a dry and sunny spring which led to an early budbreak. The summer was hot and dry, resulting in a small but highly concentrated harvest. These conditions contributed to a wine with great complexity and depth.

This wine pairs well with rich, hearty dishes such as roasted lamb, beef, or game, as well as with mature cheeses.
