Description
Domaine Faiveley Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 'La Combe Aux Moines' is a Premier Cru from the high, cool upper slope of Gevrey-Chambertin, named for the monks who once worked it.
The climat sits near the mouth of the Combe de Lavaux, high on the hill above Lavaux Saint-Jacques, on thin stony soil over limestone and open to the cold air drawn down the valley. Monastic orders cleared and planted much of the Côte during the Middle Ages, and the name records that history. Gevrey-Chambertin is the largest commune of the Côte de Nuits, with nine Grands Crus and a long list of Premiers Crus on the slopes either side of the village. Faiveley, founded at Nuits-Saint-Georges in 1825 and now in the hands of the seventh generation, vinifies each climat apart and ages in French oak.
Serve near 16 degrees with roast lamb, game or a hard mountain cheese. This is one of the Gevrey Premiers Crus built for long keeping.
