Domaine Faiveley (Joseph Faiveley)
Blagny Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay
A nose of lemongrass and bright lime. Bright acidity but soft on the mid palate. River rocks. Stone fruit and wet earth. Well balanced.

Jan 8th, 20172011; great acidity here and we'll judged oak framing its lemongrass infused pineapple fruit wher tart apples offer additional freshness to its juicy and appealing finish. Very well made but doesn't really create lasting memories.

Jan 1st, 20162011, Lovely white burgundy , a bit on the modern side.
This 1er CRU Meursault, is still young and needs time to further evolve. It has a light gold color, the nose is full of butter, oak, minerals, nuts and a touch of citrus and summer flowers, full body, creamy, rich with lovely crispy acidity and mineral notes , fresh citrus finish. My score 89, drink 2014-2021, perhaps longer.

Pretty and balanced, this wonderfully Meursault shows restraint and fresh, juicy acidity, complemented by chalky minerality. While not overtly complex, it's a smooth and wonderful drink.

Sep 18th, 2014All "yellow" stuff dance on the juicy palate; pineapple, sweet lemons, Golden Delicious apples and sun-kissed, chalky soils. Very Puligny in style.

Aug 6th, 2014Lemon candy, lime zest, tart apple, and passion fruit in the bouquet with some woody cedar and interesting notes of cold steel, wool, lanolin, and hard/minerally spring water. On the palate mild yellow apple and subtle notes of lemon pith and grapefruit oil, lemon cream puff mid-palate, and grippy white-tea tannins on a medium-length finish. Alcohol just a hair on the stiff side but overall wonderfully done.

You can sense that Puligny-Montrachet is nearby here; fresh and stony with defined acidity and a lifted finish. Elegant and more-ish.
