🍇 Refined, Powerful, and Seductively Silky
From one of the cooler, higher-elevation Premier Cru sites in Gevrey-Chambertin, La Combe aux Moines is a wine of poise and precision—combining depth, structure, and sensual finesse in classic Faiveley style.

🍷 In the Glass
Deep ruby with garnet hues—intense, luminous, and captivating.

👃 On the Nose
Aromatic and powerful with fresh red and black fruit—cherry, blackberry, and plum—layered with subtle spice, cedar, and a hint of smoke from refined barrel ageing.

🍽 On the Palate
Elegant and persistent, showing a core of ripe fruit, toasted oak, and savoury spice. The texture is silky and round, supported by fine-grained tannins and lifted by a vibrant, racy acidity. The finish is long, refined, and quietly commanding.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with duck breast, roast quail, mushroom-based dishes, or aged Comté. Also excellent with beef bourguignon or venison loin.

⏳ Ageing Potential
Beautiful now with a decant, but ideal for cellaring 10–15+ years to reveal its full aromatic and textural complexity.

💫 Why You’ll Love It
La Combe aux Moines brings together power and elegance with seamless grace. A Premier Cru for those who admire detail, purity, and the quiet strength of top-tier Gevrey.
