“The Chave line… could make a fair claim to be France’s winemaking royal family: in no other of France’s great terroirs is the largest individual landholder so deeply rooted in time and place,so supremely competent, and so modest a custodian of insights and craftsmanship of the past.”
Andrew Jeffords The New France
Still quite youthful, with intense salted butter, chamomile, white peach, yellow apple and Cavaillon melon flavors, lined with acacia and jasmine notes. A lightly waxy edge harnesses the finish. Best from 2018 through 2026. 200 cases made.
