    Information
    About the producer

    The Faiveley family has been running this domain since 1825. In 2005 Erwan Faiveley succeeded his father in the management of the property which is one of the largest ones in Burgundy: 10 hectares of Grands Crus and nearly 25 hectares of Premier Crus, including several climates where it is the sole owner (Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Clos des Issarts, Beaune Premier Cru Clos de l'Ecu and Clos des Cortons Faiveley Grand Cru). The vineyards remain very fragmented with an average size of 1 hectare in each appellation. In general, the wines of the domain are dense and fruity. The estate was the first in Burgundy to convert 120 hectares of vines to sustainable agriculture, having obtained the HVE (High Environmental Value)) certificate. Its conversion to organic practices started in 2022 and 2025 will be the first vintage to be certified organic.

    About the wine

    The Blagny Premier Cru is a rarity in the Côte de Beaune, as it is a climat that straddles Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet. The village of Blagny, perched on the hillside at 400 metres, was long a monastic hamlet. The vines are planted on the upper slopes of Meursault, facing east and south-east. Grapes are harvested by hand, with a meticulous selection in the vineyard before being gently pressed in whole bunches in a pneumatic press. After cold settling, alcoholic fermentation takes place in oak casks. The wine is then aged for 16 months on the lees. Bottling is carried out without fining or excessive filtration to preserve the wine’s integrity.
    The pale yellow hue is graced with silver glints. The elegant, pure nose reveals notes of vine blossom, fresh almond, flint and a subtle hint of wood. On the palate, a lively attack gives way to chiselled minerality, a saline backbone and fine length, carried by citrus and a delicate smoky touch.
