Faiveley believes the 1990s are the finest wines the firm has produced in several decades. Consumers will be happy to know that not only is there a bevy of top wines, but many of them are priced below what Faiveley the last two vintages. The international recession has hit Burgundy as hard as Bordeaux, so it is not surprising to see many producers cut prices by as much as 40% in order to sell their wines. Of course, much of these savings is lost to Americans because of our pathetically weak dollar.Faiveley has consistently made excellent wines from the Morey St.-Denis premier cru vineyard, Clos des Ormes. I continue to drink the 1985 Clos des Ormes, which is the best vintage of this wine I have tasted from Faiveley, with the 1990 a close second. The 1990's big, perfumed nose of jammy berry fruit, sweet oak, cedar, and herbs is captivating. In the mouth, this wine is soft, generously endowed, medium to full-bodied, with a velvety textured, lush finish. Drink it over the next 7-8 years.Importers: Henry Cavalier Selections, Boulder, CO and Ideal Wines, Medford, MA.
