Owned by the Ondet family since the late 19th century, Château Chauvin was acquired in May 2014 by Sylvie Cazes, a leading figure in the Bordeaux wine industry. Located between Cheval Blanc and Rol Valentin, the estate’s 15 hectares enjoy an ideal location within the Saint-Émilion appellation. The vineyard, consisting of a single block, is planted primarily with Merlot (75%), which grows on clay-limestone soil with excellent drainage. In the estate’s clayier section, Cabernet Franc (20%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%) are cultivated.
Château Chauvin displays remarkable intensity and depth. The bouquet evokes notes of blackberries, cherries, and currants in its youth, later evolving into aromas of leather and cigars. On the palate, all the nobility hinted at by the nose is fully realized. The tannins are rich and persistent.
The wine can easily be stored for about fifteen years.
