A tribute to Bourgogne, to 200 years of history and to family legacy through an exceptional auction.

 

 

On 5 November 2025, the historic Domaine Faiveley will mark its bicentenary with an extraordinary auction hosted by Christie’s. Open online from 5 to 19 November 2025, this unique sale celebrates two centuries of winemaking excellence and deep-rooted connection to the finest terroirs of Bourgogne.
Founded in 1825 and based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Faiveley spans over 120 hectares across the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, including 12 Grands Crus and 22 Premiers Crus. Now led by Eve and Erwan Faiveley, the seventh generation, the estate produces wines of power, finesse and elegance. In 2025, the Domaine also celebrates its organic certification, a milestone marking 200 years of excellence and commitment to its terroir.

Under the hammer of the world-renowned auction house Christie’s, collectors will have the rare opportunity to acquire exceptional wines direct from the Domaine Faiveley’s cellars. The catalogue includes exclusive verticals of Grands Crus, large-format bottles, and historic vintages such as Corton Clos des Cortons Faiveley 1955 and Musigny 1908, true treasures embodying the Faiveley family’s legacy.

Beyond celebration, the auction also expresses a commitment to giving back to Bourgogne. As Eve Faiveley notes, “All proceeds from the Clos Vougeot lots will be donated to the Fondation du Patrimoine to support the restoration of the Château du Clos Vougeot, an enduring symbol of Burgundy’s heritage.

For Christie’s, this collaboration offers a rare glimpse into the heart of one of Bourgogne’s most distinguished estates. “This auction allows collectors to explore the Domaine Faiveley’s heritage and access some of the region’s most remarkable wines… Each lot reflects generations of expertise and attentive care.” (Edwin Vos, International Head of Wine & Spirits at Christie’s)
