“Extremely aromatic with chalk and dried flowers, as well as blackberries and blueberries. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a steady layer of medium, round and chewy tannins and a long, spicy finish of white pepper and dark fruit. Try after 2026.”
The Estate
This 15-hectare estate is located in the north-west of Saint-Emilion, near the Pomerol appellation. The vineyard covers 15 hectares in a single block, in the north-west of the commune of Saint-Emilion, between Cheval-Blanc and the Butte de Rol. The first classification of the Saint-Émilion crus was approved in 1954. Chauvin was then classified among the 80 crus selected from nearly 1,000 listed crus. It was in 2014 that Sylvie Cazes and her children acquired Château Chauvin. The 2019 vintage of Château Chauvin is resolutely part of the estate’s renewal and reflects the full richness of its terroir.
