Domaine Faiveley Nuits-Saint-Georges "Aux Chaignots" Premier Cru 2017 is a red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes from the Aux Chaignots Premier Cru vineyard in the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation of Burgundy, France. This wine has a dark ruby color with aromas of red and dark fruits, such as cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, with hints of spice, earth, and oak. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins and flavors of ripe red and black fruits, herbs, and a touch of minerality. The wine has a long, complex finish with a balanced acidity and a lingering aftertaste.

The 2017 vintage had a warm growing season, leading to ripe and concentrated grapes. The wine was aged in oak barrels for 14-16 months, adding complexity and structure to the wine. This Premier Cru wine pairs well with roasted or grilled meats, such as beef or lamb, and can also be enjoyed with hearty stews or strong cheeses.

Domaine Faiveley is a family-owned winery founded in 1825 in Burgundy, France. They produce a range of wines from different appellations, from village-level to Grand Cru, and are known for their commitment to quality and sustainability in winemaking.
