Faiveley Wines achieve high scores from Burghound

In his latest review on Burghound.com, Allen Meadows tasted several Domaine Faiveley wines from the 2013 vintage. He has included in his selection the Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, which was awarded 92-94/100, as well as the Musigny Grand Cru which scored 95-98/100.

Meadows described the 2013 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru:

“An outstanding richness and and a very rounded and suave medium weight plus flavors that possess an abundance of dry extract that both coats the palate and buffers the moderately firm acid spine on the mineral-driven, saline and notably more persistent finish. This is more obviously structured and will need a few more years of cellar time to fully realize its considerable potential.”

And the 2013 Musigny Grand Cru:

“A very pungent nose displays plenty of wood and menthol influences. There is superb richness and intensity to the seductively textured mineral-inflected flavours that are at once powerful yet refined before culminating a very concentrated and stunningly long finish that just goes on and on. This is exceptionally promising and should also live for decades. In a word, brilliant.”
