Alain and Corentin own a substantial 1.8 hectares of this well-sited climat that lies just across the border from Meursault 1er Cru Charmes. Alain always vinifies it separately with the use of natural yeasts, producing a wine that has additional weight and class and is closer in quality to the premier crus.

Producer

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.

Tasting Notes

Fermented with the use of natural yeasts, this beautiful wine is steely to the core, with an additional weight of tropical grapefruit and melon fruit that suggests it is closer to premier cru in quality. An outstanding wine.

Food Matches

Try with Risotto with asparagus and St George's mushrooms.

Vinification

Fermented and aged in 228 litre casks, 20% of which is new.
