Tipped as Puligny-Montrachet’s ‘domaine to watch’ in the 1980s by Jasper Morris, Romaric Chavy has since taken over his father’s estate and wasted no time in staking a claim as one of Burgundy’s next winemaking stars. Having ended his father’s practice of selling grapes to negociants, and investing in a spacious new winery, Romaric is continually making improvements to Chavy-Chouet’s hugely impressive range. ‘Les Femelottes’ – from a 40-year-old, single vineyard plot lying within Puligny itself – is round and supple in apricot and citrus. This cuvée is very lively. In the mouth, it is supple, fruity, and balanced. Right now, it can be enjoyed in all its freshness, and for a few years to come.
