Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques 2017 - Faiveley

The Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques 2017 from Domaine Faiveley is a Burgundy red wine from one of the most prestigious climats in Gevrey-Chambertin, renowned for producing wines of great depth and remarkable elegance. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this Burgundy 1er Cru expresses the richness of the Lavaux Saint-Jacques terroir with finesse and precision. The 2017 vintage, harmonious and already accessible, offers a balance between aromatic concentration and natural freshness.

The nose reveals aromas of red and black fruits (cherry, blackberry, blackcurrant), complemented by floral notes, violet, cocoa and a subtle mineral touch. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with silky tannins, elegant texture and a long, persistent finish, the signature of Faiveley's racy and precise style.

This Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 2017 is best served at around 16°C, after decanting if tasted young. It will accompany red meats, roast lamb, pigeon in sauce or wild mushroom dishes with finesse. With an ageing potential of 10 to 15 years, it will gain complexity and aromatic depth with time.

An elegant, precise and racy Burgundy 1er Cru, revealing all the nobility of Pinot Noir and the mastery of Domaine Faiveley.
