Dom. Faiveley Corton Clos des Cortons Grand Cru Monopole 2022

Clos des Cortons Faiveley, the only red Grand Cru on the Côte de Beaune and the flagship of our estate is a Monopole owned by our family since 1874 that majestically extends over 2 ha 76. Its unique name stems from a controversy that arose in the 1930s, when our family name was added to the original ‘Clos des Cortons’ to avoid any confusion. Clos des Cortons Faiveley is steeped in a rich history, mirroring its exceptional and complex terroir. Dominated by limestone, marl and clay, its soil is strewn with ferruginous oolite, forging red wines of unrivalled quality.
