Located in the heart of Meursault, the Chavy-Chouet estate stands as a benchmark for fine Burgundy wines. The history of the Chavy and Chouet families is deeply rooted in the region, where vine cultivation and winemaking expertise have been passed down for several generations, with an in-depth knowledge of the terroirs and various appellations.
The current estate truly took shape in 2006, driven by Romaric Chavy. By bringing together the family plots from the two Chavy and Chouet siblings, he then built an estate covering a mosaic of prestigious terroirs around Meursault, but also in neighboring appellations such as Puligny-Montrachet, Volnay, Pommard, and also Saint-Aubin.
This diversity allows the estate to offer a wide range, from "village" wines to Premier Crus, with cuvées from many renowned lieux-dits such as Les Narvaux, Les Charmes, Les Casse-Têtes, Les Genevrières, Les Enseignères, Les Folatières, as well as Les Chanlins, Les Femelottes, Clos de Corvées de Citeau, Les Champs-Gain, or Sous La Chapelle.
Romaric Chavy's work is based on a demanding and contemporary vision of wine.In the vineyard, particular attention is paid to the soils and the natural balance of the plots. In the cellar, the objective is to precisely reveal each terroir and appellation, highlighting the purity of Chardonnay for white wines, and Pinot noir for red wines. Each bottle reflects this pursuit of balance and accuracy. The estate's wines captivate with their precision, elegance, and ability to express all the complexity of Burgundy's soils.
Today, the Chavy-Chouet estate is undoubtedly among the region's essential names, with products sought after for their quality.
The vineyard of Domaine Chavy-Chouet covers approximately 15 hectares, in the heart of Burgundy, with a privileged location on the Côte de Beaune. This diversity of plots allows Romaric Chavy to work with a wide range of emblematic appellations, renowned for the quality of their wines and the richness of their terroirs.
The estate is notably present in the following appellations:
Each of these terroirs has its own characteristics (soil type, exposure, altitude), directly influencing the style and color of the wines.
The plots dedicated to Chardonnay, the king white grape variety of Burgundy white wines, thus give rise to great precise and elegant white wines, notably in Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, where minerality and tension are particularly sought after.
On the red wine side, Pinot Noir is expressed in appellations such as Volnay and Pommard, with profiles ranging from finesse to structure.
This richness of terroirs allows the estate to cover the entire Burgundy classification, from village wines to Premiers Crus, thus offering a complete and coherent overview of the region.Each bottle offered for sale and available in our stock (individually or by the case, in 75cl bottles as well as magnums), precisely reflects its origin and the meticulous work carried out both in the vineyard and in the cellar.
Domaine Chavy-Chouet stands out above all for the quality of its white wines, made from Chardonnay. These wines offer a precise interpretation of each appellation, with profiles combining finesse, richness, tension, and balance. The objective is clear: to accurately convey the identity of each terroir through complex and elegant cuvées.

The white wines from Domaine Chavy-Chouet, notably Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, stand out for their balance between richness and minerality.
Thus, the Puligny-Montrachet "Les Enseignères" will, for example, be ideal with seafood, a fish carpaccio or sashimi. Its tension and minerality will perfectly complement iodized dishes.
The Meursault "Les Narvaux" will, on the other hand, be perfect with fish in a light sauce, a sea bass fillet or creamy poultry. Its structure provides body without weighing down the dish.
Finally, the Meursault 1er Cru "Les Charmes" will pair well with richer dishes such as lobster, pan-seared scallops or poultry with morel mushrooms.
The red wines made from Pinot Noir from Domaine Chavy-Chouet offer finesse and complexity, which allows for elegant pairings.
The Volnay "Sous La Chapelle" will thus be ideal with white meats. Its natural finesse, delicate tannins, and elegant profile will highlight the tenderness of the meat without ever overpowering it, creating a perfectly balanced pairing.
The Pommard 1er Cru "Les Chanlins" cuvée, more structured, will perfectly accompany a grilled red meat, a duck breast or a rich sauced dish.
Each bottle from the Chavy-Chouet estate is designed to perfectly complement the table. Thanks to their balance and clarity, these wines allow for precise and successful pairings, that are suitable for both everyday meals and more gourmet occasions.
