Good full medium red. High-pitched aromas of raspberry, crushed stone, white pepper, blood orange and flowers. Tight today and folded in on itself, with some excess CO2 currently suppressing the mid-palate fruit. Fairly tough tannins cut off the wine's finishing flavors, but the intensity and precision of this grand cru suggest that it will reward seven or eight years of cellaring.

The ripeness of the fruit gives richness on the nose and fleshy sweetness on the palate. Black fruits tend to be to the fore with behind a mulberry and red cherry mix adding to the complexity. The ripeness of the fruits fills the back palate and finish with sweet flavours. 2015-24 Rating: 96 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)
We always knew that Faiveley had some of the best vineyard holdings in the Côte d’Or, but now they are finally making the most of them. This rose petal and wild strawberry-scented red is a stunner, with the freshness of a cool evening breeze. It’s an effortlessly elegant wine, with beautiful balance and poise. 2016-25 Rating: 98 Tim Atkin MW, www.timatkin.com (Jan 2013)
