Chauvenet have a 0.28 ha parcel.
Burghound
Very spicy and distinctly ripe black fruit and pungent earth aromas introduce lightly mineral-inflected flavors that are noticeable less robust than the villages wines, all wrapped in an attractively vibrant, firm and reasonably persistent finish of moderate rusticity.
Jancis Robinson
Lots of life and energy on the nose. Racy and supple with great freshness and fruit. Gravelly and fresh. Quite long.
Handford Wines
One of the best known vineyards and deservedly so. These vines were planted by the young Jean Chauvenet and his father in 1953 and 1954. Deep, red/black in colour and with huge richness of persistent red and black fruit salad with hints of the sweet shop too. Tannins are ripe, but tempered, as this relies more on crunchy acidity and earthy notes for its balance and ageing potential. A ripe, grape skin finish gives a pleasant natural style to this Damodes. 2018 to 2027
