Overview

Les Faconnieres is one of Domaine Lignier-Michelot’s emblematic Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru wines, produced from some of the domaine’s oldest Pinot Noir vines. Combining old-vine depth with a high proportion of whole-bunch fermentation, it reflects the domaine’s emphasis on freshness, aromatic complexity and the character of its Burgundy terroir.

Vineyard

Les Faconnieres is a Premier Cru vineyard in Morey-Saint-Denis in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. The domaine describes these as its oldest vines, with some more than 65 years old. More than 3,500 bottles are produced each year.

Viticulture & Winemaking

The domaine places particular emphasis on freshness and traditional Burgundian methods. Les Faconnieres is vinified with approximately 80% whole bunches. Across the domaine, wines are typically matured for 10 to 13 months in barrel before being assembled in stainless steel for a further four months. New oak does not exceed 30%.

Producer

Domaine Lignier-Michelot is based in Morey-Saint-Denis and is run by Laure and Virgile Lignier. The family has cultivated vines in the village since the early 20th century. The domaine produces wines across Morey-Saint-Denis and neighbouring CĂ´te de Nuits appellations, including holdings in Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. Its approach focuses on expressing individual terroirs with freshness, balance and the aromatic finesse of Pinot Noir.
