Faiveley, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru, Les Cazetiers 2020

Bright vibrant purple, this is exuberant, wearing its heart on its sleeve. On the richer side, I was thinking possible 14% but Erwan confirms 13.5%. It has retained all its balance, and can offer a very pretty long juicy cherry finish.... Read More

The Burgundy Pyramid

Making sense of the complexity of the complexity of Burgundy isn’t easy.

Though Burgundy only comprises 5% of France’s vineyard area, it holds 100 different Appellations, 25% of the entire French total.  There are no less than 5,000 growers, 85% of whom own less than 10 hectares, and four fifths of them make wine.

Faiveley, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru, Les Cazetiers 2020

Bright vibrant purple, this is exuberant, wearing its heart on its sleeve. On the richer side, I was thinking possible 14% but Erwan confirms 13.5%. It has retained all its balance, and can offer a very pretty long juicy cherry finish. Drink  92-94 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, November 2021

Les Cazetiers has a distinguished position, sitting high on the slope above the village between the two of the greatest 1er Crus in Gevrey, Clos StJacques and Combe aux Moines. Faiveley own about half the vineyard and this wine is always a banker in their cellar, ageing comfortably over 15+ years. Black fruit, spice, rounded with fine tannins. Richer style of Cazetiers with a long length. Drink 2026-2038+

 

Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.
