Domaine Chavy‑Chouet, located in Meursault, Burgundy, has earned high esteem for its single‑vineyard white wines—particularly those from the monopole parcel Clos des Corvées de Citeau. With vines planted in prime limestone and marl soils, the estate emphasizes low yields, whole‑cluster pressings, fermentation in large oak barrels combined with stainless steel, and extended ageing to retain clarity and texture. They practice precision viticulture and minimal intervention in the cellar, aiming to express terroir over technique. Under the direction of the Chavy family, the estate has kept a consistent style: refined Chardonnay with mineral drive, energy and capacity for ageing. The wines are highly sought‑after by Burgundy enthusiasts who value subtlety, structure and the unmistakable imprint of Meursault’s terroir.
