Domaines Faiveley, one of Burgundy's most renowned and historic wineries, is known for producing wines that precisely express the unique character of their terroir, combining traditional methods with modern techniques to achieve the highest quality.
The Bâtard-Montrachet vineyard is located on the border between the municipalities of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, and represents one of the five Grand Cru vineyards in the area dedicated exclusively to the production of Chardonnay white wine. This privileged location, together with a limestone and clay soil rich in minerals, gives Bâtard-Montrachet exceptional complexity and depth, making it one of the most sought-after and appreciated white wines in the world.
The vinification and aging of Faiveley wines follows rigorous standards to ensure that each bottle reflects the purity and intensity of the fruit, as well as the unique nuances of its vineyard of origin. For Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, this means a slow and controlled fermentation in French oak barriques, followed by a period of barrel maturation that varies according to the vintage, during which the wine develops its structure and complex aromas .
Visually, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a brilliant golden color, with green reflections that underline its youth and freshness. On the nose, the wine offers an intense aromatic palette that ranges from notes of white pulp fruit, such as peach and pear, to nuances of citrus, white flowers, honey, butter and a distinct minerality reminiscent of flint and chalk. This olfactory complexity is also reflected on the palate, where the elegance and power of Chardonnay are fully expressed in a rich but balanced structure, with a lively acidity that leads to a long and memorable finish.
Ideal in combination with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, fish in a creamy sauce or poultry in delicate preparations, the Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru by Domaines Faiveley is a wine that enchants with its ability to combine aromatic intensity, depth of flavor and an extraordinary elegance, offering a tasting experience that remains etched in the memory of the most demanding wine enthusiasts.
