Domaine de la Chauvinière was founded in 1946 with only 5 hectares of Melon de Bourgogne. Jérémie Huchet now heads the estate with 38 hectares of organically grown grapes on gneiss, granite, and amphibolite soils. This fresh, seamless Muscadet balances aromas of pear and white peach with a firm minerality and tangy acidity.
Wine Advocate Review:
The 2022 Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie Domaine de la Chauvinière from Jerémy Huchet has a delightful and appealing bouquet with aromas of lemon, jasmine, pear and spring flowers intertwined with hints of menthol. On the palate, the wine is juicy, well-balanced and elegant, with a medium-bodied structure and a long finish. This is a delicate, elegant rendition of granodiorite soils.
