Domaine Jean Louis Chavy

Jean-Louis Chavy is one of the sons of Gerard Chavy. Jean-Louis now runs his own domaine whilst his brother Alain runs Domaine Gerard Chavy. The brand new air-conditioned cellar was built in 2003, in the heart of the village of Puligny-Montrachet. The winemaking methods used are traditional, and the result is elegant and rich wines which show no noticeable oak influence.

What an amazing wine! Rich, intense, broodingly decadent and appealing on the nose. The palate is equal to the nose, but adds more weight, a rich complex structure and long mineral-led finish. My white wine of the vintage.

Try with halibut and a butter sauce

Hand-picked, sorted and fermented in tank, racked into barrels with 25% new oak and the remainder in 350lit Demi Muids. The wines undergo a very gentle fining after 12 months.
