The Domain Alain Chavy is a small family business located in Puligny-Montrachet, Burgundy. Its vineyards extend over 6.5 hectares, part of which are located in the Puligny Montrachet appellation and planted between 1965 and 1974. Among these, some are located very close to Meursault and are characterized by clayey soils. The company carries out a philosophy focused on respect for the territory and tradition in winemaking practices for the production of wines of great quality.
The Chardonnay grapes for this classy regional wine, hailing from the younger vineyards of Puligny-Montrachet, are selected and harvested manually. After fermentation, the wine is aged on fine lees for one year in oak barrels to add structure.
Domaine Alain Chavy Bourgogne Chardonnay is a lively and elegant wine that reveals fragrant notes of green apple and citrus fruits and delicate hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is fresh and full-bodied with a good concentration of fruit, especially citrus and apple, and a creamy mouthfeel. It has a long finish that recalls a marked mineral vein, typical of Puligny-Montrachet wines. It is a great value wine that works perfectly with chicken dishes, served with creamy sauces, or with elegant shellfish-based recipes.
A Birthday to Remember with DAOU & Colomé Celebrating my mother’s birthday was made even more special thanks to two incredible wines—DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 and Colomé Auténtico Malbec 2020. The star of the evening was undoubtedly the DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon. From the first sip, it enveloped us in its rich, velvety embrace. The deep dark fruit flavors, hints of cocoa, and perfectly balanced oak made every glass feel like a true indulgence. It was bold yet elegant, a wine that effortlessly brought warmth and joy to our gathering. Seeing my mother savor each sip with a smile made it all the more memorable. The Colomé Auténtico Malbec also delivered beautifully, with its pure expression of high-altitude Malbec. It was powerful, with ripe blackberries, spice, and a smooth, lingering finish—an excellent complement to the evening. These wines didn’t just enhance our meal; they became part of the celebration, elevating every toast and conversation. A heartfelt thank you to DAOU and Colomé for making this special occasion truly unforgettable!
