Description: | Romaric Chavy is the 7th generation of the family to work their vines. The activity of filling bottles only started in 1982 with Romarics grandfather before they supplied everything to the ngoce. The Chouet in the domaines name refers to Huberts first wife when first became apparent there were some subsequent vintages where the label became only Hubert Chavy but Romaric is heading back to the Chavy-Chouet! The domaines main market is now in Europe, though the USA was interesting before the recent financial crisis. The domaine is currently managing their vines through lutte raisone and they prefer to plough the soil. The grapes are pressed then stay in tank for three or four days before moving via gravity into the barrels. Theres a light battonage only three or four times until the main fermentation is finished we look for freshness not creaminess. Wines are bottled after about 12 months with quite a lot of Co2, which means they are not quite sparkling, but remain quite fresh. Wine Maker - "We try to avoid the sweet vanilla taste." |
