Appearance
This white wine reveals a lovely hue shimmering between gold and pale straw.

Palate
Both generous and taut, the palate reveals a beautiful power balanced by lively acidity. A markedly saline minerality carries the tasting towards an energetic finish, where the wine's richness harmonises perfectly with its natural freshness.

Serving and cellaring

With its beautiful structure, this Ladoix Village "Les Marnes Blanches" 2024 reveals excellent ageing potential and may be enjoyed until around 2034.

The estate

Founded in 1825 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Faiveley has established itself as a true benchmark in Burgundy. Backed by an exceptional vineyard of 120 hectares spread across the region's finest terroirs, this historic estate has stood the test of time while preserving its family character. Today, the seventh generation, embodied by Erwan and Eve Faiveley, leads the property with a modern and committed vision. Fully converted to organic farming, the house perpetuates a unique expertise, combining respect for nature with technical precision to reveal the authenticity of each plot.

The vineyard

Located at the foot of the Montagne de Corton, the plot behind this cuvée extends over 3.19 hectares within the Ladoix appellation. Nestled in a small valley and enjoying a north-north-east exposure, the vines benefit from slow ripening, ideal for preserving the freshness of the berries. The soils, composed of marl and lightly stony limestone, give this terroir a singular identity, particularly well suited to producing white wines of great mineral tension.

Grape variety

Chardonnay (100%).
