Mid crimson colour. The strawberries have been crushed here, slightly sombre fruit. Something of a tingle at the back, better acidity in the Charmes, medium length.” Drink: 2030 - 2036 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93 POINTS - Charles Curtis MW - Decanter, Oct 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Seems slightly restrained, the aromas are not as forward, and the fruit develops a plummy, ripe sweetness only on the palate. The texture is correct but lacks the expressive exuberance of recent vintages. In 2024, they produced only three barrels. The cuvée is normally a blend of domaine fruit and purchased grapes, and this may affect the quantity and style in a year such as 2024.” Drink: 2028 - 2040 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinery\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWine 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThis charming Grand Cru is situated on the most northern part of the hillside, in the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin. The production areas for the Charmes-Chambertin and Mazoyères-Chambertin appellations are the same and it is the Charmes-Chambertin appellation that is usually specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyards\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ePlot: 0.81 ha. The vines thrive on clay-rich brown soils (around 40%), interspersed with lava and iron ore deposits. This unique soil composition imparts aromas of red fruit along with a distinctive opulence to the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe 2024 season was marked by persistent rainfall and cooler-than-average temperatures, especially through spring. Budburst began in early April, with flowering by mid June. Drier, sunnier weather in July and August supported slow, even ripening, and veraison started around mid August. Harvest took place in mild conditions, with a warm north wind in mid-September helping concentrate sugars. Overall, the vintage was defined by a long, gradual, and balanced growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe wines are punched down daily in order to extract color, tannins and aromas from the skin of the grapes. After a 19 day vatting period, the alcoholic fermentation is complete. The free-run 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eCharmes-Chambertin reveals an attractive deep ruby red hue and rich nose disclosing a variety of small red fruits, spice and flowers. This indulgent yet very elegant wine offers silky smooth tannins although it requires a few years in the bottle before it reaches its full potential.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Faiveley","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":67927273308269,"sku":"NEGNWPR1D311","price":731.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/5622\/files\/15420224307309-DomaineFaiveleyCharmes-ChambertinGrandCru2024.jpg?v=1793729307","url":"https:\/\/worldwine.com.au\/products\/domaine-faiveley-charmes-chambertin-grand-cru-2024","provider":"World Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
