WINERY
Wine runs deep in the Faiveley family’s blood, as they have been deeply rooted in Bourgogne, its history, and its culture for almost two centuries now. Their values have remained unchanged over the last seven generations and are based on a deep attachment to the Bourgogne region, an instinctive passion for the terroirs, and an innate respect for man and his work. Today they are one of the largest owners in Burgundy, with holdings spreading from the Côte de Nuits to the Côte Chalonnaise, featuring polished, collectible reds and whites with exceptionally high ratings.

WINE
The name of this Premier Cru, a monopole from Domaine Faiveley, most probably originates from the English “My Land”, the name given to this area by an English dignitary. This clos produces a powerful, direct, and well-balanced wine.

WINEMAKING
The wines are pumped over twice daily in order to extract color, tannins and aromas from the skin of the grapes. After a 15 to 19 day vatting period, the alcoholic fermentation is complete. The freerun wine is run off using a gravity system whilst the marc is pressed slowly and gently in order to extract an exceptionally pure press wine.
