The Domaine's Monopole since 1933, La Framboisière owes its name to the presence of raspberry plants. A characteristic that also reveals itself on the palate. Its aromatic intensity is seductive, highlighting red fruits and a beautiful minerality.
Pierre Faiveley was a shoemaker born in Nuit who passionately loved the wines and founded the Joseph Faiveley winery in 1825, which he named after his son. His son Joseph took over the family estate in 1860. By 1873 they had acquired vineyards in Nuit-St-Georges and this year they acquired their iconic Clos de Corton monopole.Since 2005, Erwan Faiveley has managed the cellar and his sister Eve joined in 2014. As a 7th generation winery, it is managed by the two of them currently the winemaking empire of Faiveley. From 2007, the head winemaker is Jerome Flous.
Its velvety tannins and lingering finish make it a true pleasure wine. The shallow, stony clay-limestone soils of La Framboisière offer excellent drainage. At the bottom of the slope, the soil composition evolves towards a mixture of clay and silt, creating a fresher, more compact terroir.
