Bernard Hervet considers the 2012 wines from the Côte de Nuits to be “classic, with good tannic structure but not aggressive. The fruit is precise, even a bit strict, and the wines will likely shut down in bottle for a little while. But I am very optimistic about their future, especially the crus."

"The 2012 reds are better than my first expectation, especially the wines from the Cote de Nuits," said CEO/advisor Bernard Hervet."Some are better than the 2010s, but others are missing a bit of phenolic ripeness and thus are a little dry on the finish.It's a classic cool year in the Cote de Nuits.In comparison, the 2011s have less grip but more charm."Hervet did one punchdown per day in 2012, an extraction that he described as a bit softer than usual, as he was concerned about getting tough tannins.A few of the Faiveley 2012s were vinified with a percentage of whole clusters but most of the fruit was destemmed.The 2012s finished their malos last March but, except for a few reduced cuvees, had not yet been racked in November.
