The Story Behind the Bottle
Burgundy expert Clive Coates MW writes that Domaine Jean Chauvenet “produces some of the most stylish, elegant wines in Nuits-Saint-Georges”, an opinion shared by many. Since 1994 the wines have been made by Jean’s son-in-law Christophe Drag, who brings an energy and modern approach to the winemaking, instilled during his years at Beaune wine school. After a traditional fermentation, this old-vine cuvée was aged in oak barrels to achieve a delicious, smooth and fragrant character. 2020 has received high praise from the critics. Burghound wrote of its "beautifully fresh and vibrant wines", while Decant declared it "certainly a vintage worth buying.”. Drinking well now, it will also age well. Best decanted, then enjoy with pan fried duck.
