Damine Faiveley Nuit Saint Gerges Premier Cru 2023 750ml - France

‘Les Saint-Georges', which lies south of the village, forges a brotherly bond with the eminent ‘Cailles’ and ‘Porêts’, while each climate retains its unique style. The coarseness of ‘Les Saint-Georges’ is an invitation to taste, and its richness encourages exploration. With a parcel of just 0.57 ac, we are the smallest owner in the appellation, and we have joined forces with 13 other producers over the last decade to obtain the long-awaited Grand Cru classification.

Tasting Notes

The 2023 vintage combines elegance and power. The bouquet features red currant, wild strawberry, rose petals, alongside hints of orange zest, cinnamon and liquorice.  The mid-palate is generous yet refined: the tannins are finely textured but firm, the acidity provides lift, and the finish is long with a subtle mineral and gravelly impression.  Given its oak integration and structural backbone, it merits decanting before drinking and offers excellent ageing prospects.

Alc: 14%
