The Saint-Véran from this flagship Burgundy domain is produced from vines cultivated on slopes of marl and calcium soil. It reveals a golden appearance with green hues. The palate is refined, acquiring floral notes which gain in complexity with age, moving towards hazelnut and roasted almond aromas. The palate is powerful, full-bodied and generous, making this the perfect white wine for enjoying with white meat.

    Information about domain Faiveley

    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.
