Price: $25  Region: Vézelay < Burgundy < FranceGrapes: Pinot NoirVineyard/Cellar Stats: Organic farming, granite/limestone soil, 10ppm SO2 at bottling, native yeast, unfined/unfilteredWinemaker: Patrick Bringer Patrick Bringer and Isabelle Georgelin are the husband and wife team behind Les Faverelles, a tiny domaine in the semi-mountainous region of Morvan in Northwest Burgundy. The couple left Paris in 2001 for the historic village of Asquins (where Isabelle is now the town’s Mayor), close to Vézelay (the regional appellation for their wines). There they found 5 ½ hectares of pinot noir and chardonnay perched on a beautiful south-eastern slope, along with a medieval cellar no larger than a SF studio apartment. The winters here are colder and snowier than Chablis, and the summers are among the warmest in Burgundy. Patrick believes that this combination of elements allows his 15-30 year-old pinot vines to retain a refreshing minerality. Nez de Muse is a feather-weight Pinot Noir
