Bourgogne Chardonnay 2021 (750 ml.) Domaine Alain Chavy
Bourgogne Chardonnay by Domaine Alain Chavy is a pure Chardonnay and is produced from vineyards over 20 years old located in the municipality of Puligny Montrachet in the famous Cotes De Beaune in Burgundy. The hand-picked and selected grapes ferment in 400L French oak barrels at a maximum of 25 degrees, with manual pumping over as little as necessary. The refinement lasts 12 months in 400L French oak barrels with 10% new wood. The bouquet is rich and intense, with hints of yellow fruit and citrus notes, followed by floral notes and pleasant spicy notes of vanilla with a slightly toasted finish. On the palate it is fine and elegant, notes of yellow fruits such as green apple and peach, citrus notes of lemon, followed by pleasant hints of white flowers and light spicy notes of vanilla with a toasted finish. Fresh and savory, with excellent minerality. Balanced wine.

Alain Chavy gained his experience in the wine sector together with his brother Jean-Louis in the family domaine Gérard Chavy et Fils, located in Puligny-Montrachet, in the Côte de Beaune. Following the retirement of their father Gérard, which occurred at the end of the 1990s, the two brothers, after having collaborated for a few years in the management of the family domaine, decided to divide the owned plots between them and create their own companies.
Thus, Domaine Alain Chavy was born in 2003, in the heart of Puligny-Montrachet: today the estate has 6.5 hectares of vineyards managed following the dictates of the lutte raisonnée and therefore limiting the use of chemical fertilizers as well as pesticides. All vinification takes place in the underground cellar - one of the few in the municipality of Puligny-Montrachet - built near the center of the town and decidedly cutting-edge. The grapes, harvested manually, are vinified separately depending on the vineyard of origin, with the exception of the very small village parcels: after pressing, they are left to cool for 18-20 hours before alcoholic fermentation begins. The refinement takes place in oak barrels and lasts for at least a year. The wines of Domaine Alain Chavy are spokespersons for the Puligny-Montrachet terroir and are characterized by their purity, elegance and marked minerality.
