The Story
For generations, the Chave family focused on orchards, with little interest in viticulture, selling their grapes in bulk to négociants. Consequently, their estate remained relatively underappreciated. However, Yann Chave, one of the most promising talents in the northern Rhône of recent years, has revitalized the vineyards and winemaking techniques, transforming the domaine into a producer of exceptional Crozes-Hermitage and Hermitage wines.
