Product description
2019 Puligny Montrachet Village Domaine Jean Louis Chavy En Primeur is now available to purchase. Please click here to email us your wish-list at [email protected].
Brothers Jean-Louis and Alain have split the well-known family vineyards between them. Jean-Louis works with 6 hectares of vines and has built his own winery that was finished in 2004. As you would expect everything is spotlessly clean and well presented. The winemaking and ageing style is traditional, producing an elegant style of Puligny with very subtle use of oak. Jean-Louis believes that 2018 whites may surprise with their ability to age. He believes that when well-made, the whites of the Cote de Beaune have the capacity to cellar well from hot vintages, citing 2003 as an example of a vintage that has produced wines that have lasted the course more easily than many expected. Picking began here at the end of August.
“Green fruits mingle with floral notes on the nose. Vibrant on the palate with a limey intensity and brightness. Aged in 350 litre barrels, 20% of which was new.”
