Northern Rhône, Domaine Yann Chave, Yann Chave Crozes Hermitage Blanc, Aoc Crozes-hermitage, Blanc
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.
Presentation
Yann explains, "I have a deep appreciation for the white wines of Burgundy and aim to capture that essence in my Crozes-Hermitage whites. By blending 70% Marsanne with 30% Roussanne, I can explore the interplay between these two varieties, adjusting to the vintage's balance. This approach allows me to craft a wine that harmoniously combines freshness with the elegance of fruit, creating a well-structured and refined expression."
