The grape
Where it's from
Burgundy
France
The spiritual home of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Burgundy's genius is its obsession with place — every vineyard classified, every nuance of soil and slope mapped and celebrated. Wines of extraordinary elegance, often infuriating scarcity, and occasionally life-changing quality.
Meet the producer
Domaine Chavy-Chouet
Burgundy, France
Romaric Chavy runs this Puligny-Montrachet estate, which he took over from his father. He ended the old practice of selling grapes to négociants and built a new winery. Love Wine stocks his Bourgogne Les Femelottes, from a single vineyard in Puligny.
More from Domaine Chavy-Chouet →The story behind it
Tipped as Puligny-Montrachet's ‘domaine to watch' in the 1980s by Jasper Morris, Romaric Chavy has since taken over his father's estate and wasted no time in staking a claim as one of Burgundy's next winemaking stars. Having ended his father's practice of selling grapes to negociants, and investing in a spacious new winery, Romaric is continually making improvements to Chavy-Chouet's hugely impressive range. PRODUCTION: Les Femelottes is located in Puligny-Montrachet, alongside the village appellation. It is the product of a single vineyard, made by the brilliant Puligny-based Chavy-Chouet. Aged 10 months in oak with 10% new barrels
