Description
Domaine Faiveley Musigny Grand Cru 2016 is one of Burgundy’s most coveted wines, sourced from the producer’s tiny parcel in the legendary Grand Cru vineyard of Musigny in Chambolle-Musigny. It captures the rare balance of power, elegance, and finesse that has made Musigny one of the world’s great vineyards, while also reflecting Domaine Faiveley’s signature structure and depth.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the kind of poised intensity expected from a top Grand Cru Pinot Noir, with aromas of wild red berries, cherry, raspberry, violets, oriental spices, and subtle forest floor notes. The palate is silky and precise, with remarkable depth, refined tannins, and a distinct mineral edge that gives the wine lift and definition.
Even in its youth, the 2016 vintage feels beautifully composed, but this is a wine built for the long haul. Its complexity and structure suggest decades of graceful aging, during which its perfume, texture, and mineral character will continue to unfold.
Production
This wine comes from Domaine Faiveley’s small holding in Musigny Grand Cru, where chalky soils and an exceptional exposure help produce Pinot Noir of uncommon finesse and concentration. Harvesting is typically carried out with great care to preserve fruit purity, and vinification is guided by a focus on precision, structure, and expressing the character of this exceptional terroir.
Food & Serving
Best enjoyed with refined dishes that complement its elegance, such as roast duck, pigeon, venison, truffle risotto, or game birds with earthy sauces. Serve at around 16-18°C, and decant gently if drinking young to allow the aromas to open; older bottles may only need a brief aeration.
