The 2022 Domaine Faiveley Bâtard Montrachet Grand Cru is a truly exceptional wine from the renowned Burgundy region of France. With a deep golden hue, this vintage is already showing signs of complexity and depth. On the nose, aromas of ripe peach, honey, and toasted almonds are immediately apparent, followed by hints of vanilla and oak. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a luscious texture and a symphony of flavors. Notes of citrus, pear, and white flowers dance on the tongue, while a touch of minerality adds a refreshing lift to the finish. This wine is a true expression of the terroir and expertise of Domaine Faiveley, and is sure to impress even the most discerning of palates. Enjoy now or cellar for further aging potential.

Stuart Pigott - JamesSuckling.com
Mind-blowingly deep and subtle nose of stone fruit with citrusy nuances. All the density of Batard, but with such elegance at the extremely long, focused finish. Great potential! From old vines purchased in 2008.

Charles Curtis MW - Decanter
Faiveley owns a third of a hectare on the Puligny side of Bâtard, directly up-slope from their vines in Bienvenues. The wine is a classic of the appellation, with ripe apple and quince aromas, hints of acacia flower, hazelnut, and spice. The texture is powerful and richer than the Bienvenues; it also has more structure and potential for ageing. The overall impression is one of density without heaviness – marvellous. This wine should open with three to five years in the bottle and drink for a further 20.

The 2022 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has slightly more complexity and mineralité on the nose than the Bienvenue. It’s sprightly and focused, with a hint of sea spray coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tension and a very slight reduction that lends tension, counterbalancing the creamy finish. Excellent.
Points: 93-95
