Domaine Faiveley Description
Intense ruby red hue and complex nose offering fruity and roasted notes. The palate is powerful, elegant and distinctive with smooth yet direct tannins and a remarkably long and elegant finish.
Wine Spectator: 96 Points
Luscious and expressive, this red exudes cherry, spiced plum, boysenberry, licorice, sandalwood and vanilla aromas and flavors, with a firm base of acidity and tannins lending support. Though balanced, this needs time for its initial attack and finish to integrate.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
The 2021 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru is beautiful, wafting from the glass with aromas of sweet red berries, orange zest, Asian spices, rose petals and sweet forest floor. Full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's layered, concentrated and complete, uniting the sensual aromatics and textures of Faiveley's Latricières with all the musculature and more of their Mazis to compelling effect.
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2021 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru bides its time opening up, revealing raspberry and cranberry fruit, autumn leaves, touches of orange pith. Cohesive and focused, it gains vigour in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, brown spices and white pepper that are liberally sprinkled over the finish that has a very small attenuation. But this is still well-crafted.
Burghound: 94 Points
A background dollop of wood is present on the overtly spicy nose of red and blue pinot fruit along this hints of herbal tea and crushed fennel. The mouthfeel of the slightly bigger flavors is much like that of the Mazis, which his to say suave and caressing while delivering better length if slightly less complexity.
Decanter: 93 Points
The Faiveley holdings in the Clos de Bèze are lovely. The 'classique' and the Bèze super-cuvée Les Ouvrées Rodin are usually among my favorite wines from this house. 2021 is no exception. It combines the solid, somewhat chunky density of the Latricières and the sensual charm and exuberance of the Charmes. The grapes come from three of the four Faiveley domaine parcels, all located in the heart of the Clos de Bèze.
