Description
Faiveley’s parcel of Clos Vougeot is at the bottom of the slope, so we have in mind the clumsy tannic beast encountered so often in the past. But like Etienne Grivot, whose plot is nearby, Faiveley has brought out all possible elegance: the tannins may be rich, but they are fine and pure, offset by juicy fresh fruit that has a touch of the ethereal. It is not showing its all at present, and the balance and density promise a great future.
