The renowned wine region of the Côte de Beaune in France, is home to a promising and recognized estate, the Domaine Chavy-Chouet. For two generations, the vines of this estate have been cultivated using sustainable agriculture, combining modernity with respect for traditional winemaking practices. With its seventy hectares of vineyards, the Domaine Chavy-Chouet spans across the Beaune vineyard, the climates of Richebourg, Chambolle-Musigny, Puligny-Montrachet, and Meursault. This estate is the result of a rich and passionate history. Years ago, Jean Chavy, who traveled through Burgundy in search of unique wines, acquired Domaine Challand and became one of the pioneer winemakers of the commune of Monthélie. His wife, Nicole Chouet, passed on her husband's passion for winemaking to their two sons, Philippe and Nathalie. Domaine Chavy-Chouet has been producing authentic wines for decades. The winemaking process performed in barrels or vats benefits from a vast palette of culturally rich crus from several different terroirs. To maintain the original quality and taste of all produced wines, the estate carefully selects each grape variety, controls yield sizes, performs meticulous pruning practices and focuses on pesticide-free plant treatments. All products from Domaine Chavy-Chouet are well balanced and naturally matured. These wines are a true legacy and celebrate the efforts of French hill farmers who, for centuries, have harvested the best crus of Burgundy and honor the land that sustains them. Together, Domaine Chavy-Chouet and Burgundy offer wine lovers unique and oh-so-precious tastes.
