Paul Chavy is the son of the renowned Burgundy vigneron Jean-Louis Chavy. Paul set up a new and prestigious négoce business enabling the family estate to offer a wider range of wines while creating opportunities to work with different terroirs and from Saint Aubin up as far as Gevrey Chambertin. The 2022 Gevrey Chambertin opens with an enticing bouquet red and dark berries, dried herbs, and turned earth. Powerful dark fruits on the palate, vibrant acidity balances the wine, with fine firm tannins in tow. Excellent ageing potential.
100% de-stemmed fruit given a cold maceration for several days before fermentation on skins for 27 days with only a gentle daily pump-over (no hand plunging). Aged on fine lees in barrel, all 228 litre barrels for the red wines, for 12 months before blending back in tank and bottled un-fined after a very light filtration.
