Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Charmes" Domaine Philippe Chavy 2022

Domaine Philippe Chavy,Puligny Montrachet

Philippe Chavy took over the reins of this wealthy domaine from his father in 2002 with a little more than 3 hectares of prime sited vineyards.

The domaine now extends to just over 8 hectares, with some thirty individual parcels scattered throughout the neighbouring villages of Puligny Montrachet (from his father’s side of the family) and Meursault (through his maternal side). Soil is worked by ploughing; there is strictly no use of herbicides or insecticides and for several years, Philippe has followed the cycles of the lunar calendar when determining work in the vineyards and cellars.

Les Folatieres was planted in 1950. It is a 0.28 hecatre plot and considered one of the most sought-after 1er cur sites.

Quite hedonistic, with sleek and ethereal textured notes of fresh mirabelle and vanilla. Long and biscuit like on the finish.

Grape: Chardonnay
