  Started out a little thin but gained more weight with air. Still very young but great structure and acidity.

  Ripe, creamy and complex.
  Medlemon. Pronounced. Yellow flowers, apple, lemon, ripe. Mint. Pastry, cream, almond cake. High acidity, med body, 12,5% abv. Long.
  
  Btb with Pouilly-Vinzelles Les Longeays which is zingy and brighter with a solid palate.
  
  This is a cuvée that includes fruit from all of the south-facing slopes they work in Fuissé.
  
  NB
  A negoce-turned-vigneron. Fabien Duperray is a well known wine agent name, representing some of the finest Bourgogne estates, including DRC, Arnaud Ente, and Coche-Dury among others.
  In 2007 he purchased gnarly old Gamay vineyards in Fleurie and Moulin-à-Vent (some 140+ years old), and he added some Chardonnay parcels from select Côte Macconais sites in 2014, which he shares with Christophe Thibert. Farming is biodynamic, everything is done by hand (tractor-free), and yields are low. The name of the winery pays homage to Jules Chauvet, the winemaker, scientist, and Beaujolais native who is often credited for launching the natural wine movement.

  Sykt pen nese. Krystallklar. Kjølig og mineralsk.
  
  Synes stilen minner om Raveneau. Men selv om det er ting her som ligner på Chablis, er det andre som ikke gjør det.
  
  Røyk, voks, hvit pepper, fennikel. Forbilledlig ren hvit frukt.
  
  I munn har den en bløt hvit frukt med noe sødme, som backes opp av en pen syre.
  
  Så rent. Smeltevann fra norske fjell.
  
  En strålende vin.

  Fresh nose but with a sense of comforting warmth brought by nice summer yellow fruits aromas. Round on the palate, noce acidity and balance overall with a beautiful mineral finish
