It opens up wonderfully. First tastes the acids were strong, not fruity at all. Light, bright and some small complexity as it opened up - and of course as we drank it ;-). We had chicken and mahi mahi - it paired very well with both. — 2 days ago

Fairly structured but still light on its feet. Red cherry, fairly primary with a bit of game. Not the most complex. Had I not known what it was, I might have guessed a California Pinot made in a Burgundian style, given the overall sweetness and lack of complexity. Had high hopes for this but was truly unimpressed. Of course I’m probably drinking this a decade before it’s time, but still, a Grand Cru should really jump out at me more. I guess not every Grand Cru can be a revelation. — a month ago

Strong clarity; ruby color with pink rim variation and light tearing. Nose has moderate notes of strawberry and raspberry preserves, candied cherry, almond paste, leather, and delicate hints of white pepper, rhubarb, compost, barnyard, and mushroom. Palate is dry and nicely balanced with more vegetal and mineral influences. Light-body and lean texture. — a month ago

Light straw color. Toasted bread and baking spices on the nose that carries onto the palate with lemon and butterscotch flavors as well. Lingering citrus and baked almonds on the finish. A very nice young wine which should improve with age. — a month ago

Past its prime and showing signs of oxidation, but still unique and enjoyable — 20 days ago

Classic Faiveley showing strength and structure on the palate but flowers and spice on the nose. Easy to pick up and enjoy for a Premier Cru. — a month ago

I had this years ago at Terranea and gave it a 9.7. After years of learning and drinking(!) I cannot rate it that high. Nevertheless it is quite good. However, Jennifer did not like it. — a month ago

Sleek and satisfying - and compared to other Domaine Faiveley wines, a great bargain. Fruity and floral on the nose, with a mouth watering black cherry pie taste, plus a chaser of thyme and marjoram. A little tight when we opened it but really loosened up. — a month ago
