“The 2022 Bourgogne Jeunes Vignes et Derniers Jus is a medium-bodied, ample and fleshy wine evocative of peaches, beeswax, white flowers and orange oil. Open and expressive, it’s produced from the later press fractions from Guffens‘s other cuvées.” 86-88 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
In 2022, Jean-Marie brought together the first juices of the youngest vines of Chavigne with the last presses of the oldest vines and those from his great terroirs (including 1ers Crus) in Saint-Véran and Pouilly-Fuissé. Searching for charm and accessibility in its youth, the wine aged in a concrete vat for 16 months. It’s been almost a decade since we could offer a Guffens-Heynen cuvée at this price. Incredibly seductive, layered and complex, loaded with floral and complex lees notes. To say this over-delivers is the understatement of the century. Enjoy it while it lasts!

Unusually for a Petit Chablis, which generally comes from the lower-lying sites on Portlandian limestone, the lion’s share of this cuvée is drawn from a parcel of Kimmeridgian-based soil. Yet it’s not necessarily the type of limestone but more the location that makes the difference. The small Defaix parcel is well situated on the […]
Add to cart Producer: Bernard DefaixFrom ten small parcels of 20-60 year old vines. Les Tremblot, (“more Puligny in character, as the soil is argileous,” says Jean-Louis); Les Meix, Les Levrons (more rounded wine for there are more stones and gravel here and it is not so heavy), Corvée des Vignes and Les Reuchaux. These small vineyard holdings are all […]
Add to cart Producer: Jean-Louis ChavyThe coolest and highest site, providing the most angular and obviously structured of the chardonnays. Reductive notes of struck match, green apple, white peach , grapefruit, sweetened condensed milk, citrus blossom and white flowers. Cool tasting, spicy and long. A wine of linear shape and great drive. Some chalky minerality on the close adding textural, […]
