The vines of Domaine Chavy-Chouet have been continuously tended since the Cistercian monks planted them in the middle ages. It was in 1893 when the Chavy family inherited the land and it has been in the family ever since with Romaric Chavy the seventh generation to run the winery.

Romaric’s training in wine began at birth, but his true studies started when he was eleven at a boarding school focusing on wine.

Since then he has worked in wine around the world before returning home to take over the winery in 2006. His approach combines tradition and modern technology with great attention to detail and a close relationship with the vines. Over the last 30 years eliminating the use of herbicides, in lieu of sulfur and copper to protect the plants and the land itself. Plowing is preferred to permanent grassing to encourage the roots to go deeper into the soil, and harvesting is done by hand. Minimum intervention is used in the vinification process, using gravity to fill the barrels.

Domaine Chavy-Chouet currently covers 15-hectares in some of the most beautiful villages of the Côte de Beaune: Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin, Volnay and Pommard. Romaric produces wine from 14 A.O.C.'s (80% White, 20% Red). Following his father’s methods, Romaric does not fine or filter his wines, instead allows their purity to shine through.

Puligny-Montrachet is a commune and appellation d'origine contrôlée in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy, France. Located between Meursault to the north and Chassagne-Montrachet to the south, this small village sits on the limestone-rich slopes of the Côte d'Or escarpment. The appellation was established in 1937 and encompasses both village-level wines and premier cru vineyards, with the famous Le Montrachet grand cru vineyard straddling the border between Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.

The terroir consists primarily of limestone and marl soils with excellent drainage and southeastern exposure that provides optimal sun exposure for ripening. Chardonnay is the sole permitted grape variety for white wine production in this appellation. The premier cru vineyards, including Les Combettes, Les Folatières, and Les Pucelles, occupy mid-slope positions where the combination of soil composition and microclimate creates ideal conditions for producing structured, mineral-driven wines. Traditional winemaking methods typically involve fermentation and aging in oak barrels, with many producers employing both new and used French oak.

Puligny-Montrachet wines are characterized by their mineral precision, citrus fruit flavors, and remarkable aging potential. Village-level wines typically display fresh apple and lemon notes with subtle floral undertones and a distinctive chalky minerality. Premier cru bottlings show greater concentration and complexity, often developing hazelnut and honey characteristics with age while maintaining the appellation's signature mineral backbone and bright acidity.
