Upon the retirement of Gerard Chavy in 1998, the brothers Jean-Louis and Alain jointly ran the estate until 2003 when they split it with Jean-Louis creating his own estate. Jean-Louis subsequently invested heavily, building a new winery and a temperature-controlled cellar. He owns several different parcels in Puligny, totaling almost 7 hectares. He makes his wines from old (20-40+ years) vines with a restrained use of oak. Above all else, Jean-Louis’ wines show purity of fruit with superb balance and minerality.
IMPORTER'S NOTES:
Vinification is classic with temperature control and only natural yeasts used for fermentation. The average age of vines at this estate is impressive with most vineyards now aged between 20 to 40 years old. For the elevage of the wines the use of new oak is restrained with the village Puligny seeing only 15% new oak and the 1er cru's just 25%.
Jean-Louis' wines show fine fruit purity, with mineral notes giving an extra dimension. These are wines of classic style that age and develop gracefully. Shows wonderful perfume and depth for this level. Outstanding value.
