Product Information: This ideal site gives a roundness and generosity compared to the more elevated Folatieres which is just above on a slightly steeper slope. This wine offers a lovely fullness with great length in the mouth owing to its old vine (average 71 years), along with aromas of ripe and candied fruit. Premier Cru Clavoilons lies right in the middle of the Puligny Appellation between Perrieres to the north and Les Pucelles bordering on the south side. Only 2 families have ownership in this tiny 5.5855 ha vineyard, Chavy family have 0.7895 ha and the rest belonging to the various branches of the illustrious Leflaive family (replanting their plot in 1970’s). Here Jean-Louis has 0.32 ha of vines planted in 1952 just below Folatieres. Eleven months in the barrel followed by a further seven in stainless-steel tanks. 25-30% new barrels. "Jean-Louis Chavy’s wines are a masterclass in finesse, showcasing the purity of Puligny-Montrachet’s terroir." - Jancis Robinson. Maker: The Chavy family has been rooted in Puligny-Montrachet for over 200 years, but it was not until 1986 that Gérard Chavy began to estate-bottle his wines, previously selling them to négociants. Following Gérard's retirement around 2005, the estate was divided into two separate entities managed by his sons, Jean-Louis and Alain Chavy. Jean-Louis Chavy has since developed a state-of-the-art winemaking facility, complete with a temperature-controlled cellar situated at the base of the village. This allows him to work comfortably while ensuring the wines are stored in optimal conditions. His son, Paul Chavy, has been part of the estate since before the pandemic and has embarked on creating his own range of wines, sourcing fruit from regions including Saint-Aubin and as far as Gevrey-Chambertin. The Chavy family continues to uphold a legacy of quality and tradition in their winemaking, offering a tantalising glimpse into the heart of Burgundy. For father and son terroir expression is paramount, with wines crafted in a consistent manner allowing the unique soil and exposure to shine through. Jean-Louis and Paul Chavy’s wines are effortless and unforced, showcasing exceptional fruit purity and a clear expression of terroir in each 1er cru. With his son Paul now working full-time at the estate after completing his winemaking studies, the added support in both the vineyard and cellar translates to even greater precision and clarity in every bottle. These wines embody a classic style, aging and developing gracefully over time. Quantities are always limited, and they sell out quickly upon release. So best to grab them while you can. The Philosophy: Vinification is classic with whole bunch pressing and 24 hours of settling with temperature control and only natural yeasts used for fermentation. Jean-Louis has not used any battonage on any cuvees for some years now. The average age of vines at this estate is impressive with most vineyards now aged between 30 to 50 years old though some in Folatieres and Clavoillons amongst the oldest planted in 1952. For the elevage of the wines the use of new oak is restrained with the village Puligny seeing only 15% new oak and the 1er cru’s just 25%. Recent years have seen a move towards 350 litre barrels for ageing to have less oak influence. Unfortunately there are no Grand cru vineyards among his holdings, however his 1er cru’s are located very close to some of the best vineyards in the heart of Puligny. Nose - Stone Fruits, Ripe, Candied Fruit There is a lovely density to the aromas and to the core of this wine. Palate - Lively, Yellow Fruits, Thread of Minerals Dense fruits. The palate is lively and the minerality zesty, which lightens the concentrated character.

Product Information: The bunches don't fall far from the vine! Paul Chavy is already showing talent well beyond his years. His 2022 Saint Romain Blanc La Perriere, a brilliantly fresh and mineral village, that's outstanding value, and a great introduction to his burgeoning collection. Proving Burgundy is still accessible if you know where to look! From a cooler north-east facing site in La Perriere which is on the left hand side before driving into the village from Meursault and then Auxey-Duresses. Very limestone terroir giving freshness and minerality to this cuvee. The vineyard is located almost right on the border of Auxey-Duresses and just a few minutes drive from Meursault. This wine is 100% aged in barrel with just 15% new oak and all barrels being 350 litre with a mix of coopers including the new tiny cooperage of Eric Millard which is very highly regarded.

The Philosophy: Paul Chavy returned to the family estate in 2020, bringing valuable insights from his studies and professional experiences. He has established a prestigious négoce business to expand their range of wines and deepen his understanding of various terroirs, villages, and crus. For the white wines, Paul employs a meticulous vinification process, featuring long, slow pressing in a pneumatic press to preserve the finest lees. The wines age in 350-litre barrels from a variety of cooperages for 11 months, followed by an additional 6 to 7 months in tank before bottling, with only light filtration and fining when necessary. The red wines are crafted with care, using 100% de-stemmed grapes. After a cool maceration of 5-7 days in stainless steel, they undergo 17-22 days of fermentation with gentle pump-overs and no punching down. After 12 months in 228-litre barrels, the wines are blended in stainless steel tanks for another 6-7 months before bottling, without fining and with light filtration. This meticulous approach, combined with Paul’s fresh insights and growing experience across new terroirs, showcases the Domaine's versatility while delivering the exceptional wines they are renowned for. Nose - Ripe Apple, Zesty Lemon, Floral Delicate floral notes intertwine with hints of crushed stones, honey and citrus on the nose. Palate - Yellow Orchard Fruits, Linear, Light Oak Ripe orchard fruits, lemon wash and a whisper of subtle oak. Finish - Zippy Acidity, Mineral, Saline Zesty, lively acidity, mature orchard fruit on the palate.

Blangè combines sustainable practices in the vineyard with a modern take. Fruit and minerality, aromatics and balanced freshness, coexist in this white wine that has made enjoyment and versatility its trademark.
