Bourgogne Chardonnay, Domaine Alain Chavy, 2022
- White Still
- Chardonnay
The Chavy family’s roots in Puligny date back nearly 200 years, but the modern story begins in 1976 when Gérard Chavy made the pivotal decision to stop selling his grapes to négociants and to bottle wine under his own label. In 2003, Gérard’s sons, Alain and Jean-Louis, parted ways due to differing visions and established their own domaines. Alain Chavy now oversees 7 hectares of some of Puligny’s most prestigious Premier Crus. Known for a restrained style that emphasises purity of fruit, Alain’s wines have quickly become a jewel of the appellation. With a hands-off approach and a focus on freshness, Alain produces wines of remarkable purity, precision, and tension.
Alain's 2022 Bourgogne Chardonnay is a very well-crafted entry-level Burgundy that offers good early drinking potential with some short-term aging capacity.
Drinking window: 2023 - 2033
