The Chavy-Chouet estate brings together two families from two villages in the Côte d'Or who have been growing grapes for seven generations. After his training at the viticultural school and several years of worldwide experience in viticulture and winemaking, Romaric Chavy has given the domaine a new face. Since 2006, he has been in charge of the 15-hectare estate with top vineyard sites in Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Auban, Volnay and Pommard.
From the simple Burgundy to the village sites and the Premier Crus, all plots are cultivated with the same care and respect for nature.
The parcel Les Maréchaux is located in Meursault and was recently acquired by Romaric Chavy after the vines of the parcel "Les Petits Poiriers" were replaced.
Color
Bright yellow with green reflections and silver rim.
Nose
The melange of lime zest, oyster shells and yellow fruits is surrounded by a gentle sea breeze as well as delicately smoky notes and outlines the nose of this extremely attractive Aligoté. With great inner balance and a clear tip, the nose announces a flawless representative of its kind.
Mouth
On the nose, the 2020 Les Maréchaux Bourgogne Aligoté from Chavy-Chouet has a present attack and good pressure. Fired by its agile acidic nerve, it is lined with a creamy melt and juicy on the palate with a firm structure and pithy bite. Aromatically, it oscillates between citrus, lime and distinctive saline notes on the long finish.
