Domaine Jean Chauvenet

Domaine Chauvenet is the perfect embodiment of the family estate as it has existed in Burgundy for decades. Here the history of the estate dates back to 1964. Christophe Drag and his wife Christine, at the helm since 1994, represent the fourth generation.
For about fifteen years the couple has turned to sustainable agriculture, limiting inputs and treatments to vines, and promoting the natural grassing of the plots. In the winery, the grapes are drastically sorted and then destemmed. The vinification is rather traditional, pre-fermentation of one week then maceration in vats for 2 to 3 weeks, punching down and daily pumping-over. Every year the wines reflect the purity of fruit and the sweetness of the Pinot Noir of the Côte de Nuits. The magnums of domaine jean chauvenet wines presented on this site come directly from the estate.
