93-91 / 100"Not in bottle. Clear paler colour, and a more refined nose. Very good tension, a lime note, very good backbone, in some ways more a St-Aubin while the Murgers des Dents de Chien seems more like Puligny. Both vineyards are 37 years old. Persistent finish. Drink from 2028-2036. Tasted: October 2023."

Tasting Notes
This Premier Cru Puligny-Montrachet is one of Chavy-Chouet's top wines possesses all the hallmarks of great White Burgundy. More fine than corpulent, Champs-Gain is a subtle wine with citrus notes that are fresh and lively. Over time, it delicately reveals notes of very ripe yellow-fleshed fruit.
Stunning richness balanced by acidity and full flavours, all underpinned by a great mineral quality.
Chavy-Chouet produces some of the best value wines in the Côte de Beaune.
Champ Gain is one of the top Premier Cru vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet.
Drink up to 10+ years after the vintage.
The texture of this wine goes beautifully with creamy dishes.
