Vintage Character The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Cazetiers from Domaine Faiveley captures the essence of this renowned Premier Cru, situated on the limestone-rich slopes with southeast exposure in the heart of Burgundy. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a challenging cool spring with significant frost, followed by a mild summer, resulting in wines of notable freshness, moderate alcohol, and vibrant acidity—qualities that appeal to lovers of classic Burgundy.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 91–93 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, this wine reveals perfumed aromas of wild berries, rose petals, and subtle forest floor. On the palate, it is both elegant and structured, with layers of red cherry, cranberry, and a hint of black tea, all supported by silky tannins and a mineral-driven backbone. Its long, precise finish makes it a refined partner for dishes such as roast duck with cherry reduction, beef carpaccio, or a wedge of aged Comté cheese, each enhancing the interplay of fruit and earth.
