Interesting facts
Domaine Chavy-Chouet, Meursault "Les Casse-Tetes" — a concentrated, powerful, and vibrant wine that embodies the essence of Meursault. Its structure and confident elegance perfectly convey the character of the terroir. The wine's aromatic profile and exceptional balance, based on richness and acidity, make it one of the greatest wines of Burgundy. The production begins with a meticulous selection of grapes grown on old vines in the Meursault appellation. The harvest is done by hand, allowing only the highest quality berries to be selected. After harvesting, the grapes are taken to the winery, where they undergo gentle pressing. The resulting juice is allowed to settle for several hours to remove sediment. It is then transferred to oak barrels for fermentation. This process uses natural yeasts, preserving the unique characteristics of the terroir. Fermentation occurs in both new and old barrels, adding complexity and depth to the wine. Light bâtonnage promotes the development of a creamy texture and aroma. After fermentation, the wine is aged on its lees in oak barrels for 9-12 months. This period allows the wine to develop a rich flavor and improve its structure. Before bottling, the wine may undergo light filtration to maintain clarity and transparency. The result is an elegant and complex wine that reflects the character of its terroir and the traditions of Burgundy winemaking.
About the Manufacturer
The Chavy family has established itself as an important producer in the Côte de Beaune region, but Domaine Chavy-Chouet remained somewhat in the shadows for a time, with its owner Hubert Chavy selling most of his production to leading négociants. Everything changed when his son Romaric took over the family estate. Today, they bottle nearly everything they produce under their own name. Romaric began studying at the Wine School at the age of 12 before becoming an apprentice to his godfather François Mikulski in Meursault. He then worked in South Africa, Spain, Greece, and Languedoc, returning to his father at the age of 22. Incredibly experienced for his age, Romaric is fully focused on realizing the incredible potential of his "star" vineyards. About 40% of the estate's vines are located in the village of Puligny-Montrachet, where Romaric has the best plots on such impressive vineyards as "Les Enseignères", "Les Folatières", and "Champ Gains". Romaric has dedicated his life to viticulture with a free spirit, an intense and dynamic approach. His ambitions are to produce the best wines that reflect the very essence of appellations such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin, Volnay, and Pommard. The wines of Domaine Chavy-Chouet are full and rich but possess an astonishing freshness and vitality that allow for enjoyable drinking in youth. Chavy-Chouet is truly an exciting domain, and Romaric is sure to become a star in the not-so-distant future.
