Tasting Note:
The 2022 Faiveley Vosne-Romanée is a beautifully expressive Pinot Noir that embodies the hallmark elegance of this prestigious village. Deep ruby in the glass, it opens with a delicate aromatic interplay of wild raspberry, rose petals, and a whisper of finely integrated oak. Subtle earthy tones and a trace of clove complete a nose that is both refined and inviting. The palate is supple and graceful, with a core of ripe red cherry and cranberry lifted by bright acidity. Silky tannins frame the fruit without overpowering it, giving way to a lingering finish that hints at violet and a touch of forest floor. Balanced and poised, this wine shows excellent concentration without excess weight, making it ideal for near-term enjoyment or medium-term cellaring. Pair with duck breast in cherry reduction, mushroom risotto, or soft cheeses like Chaource. Drink now to 2035.
