Product Description
The 2023 Meursault 1er Cru “Les Charmes” from Domaine Philippe Chavy is a classic expression of this renowned Premier Cru, known for its richness, breadth, and refined elegance. Located just below “Perrières” and “Genevrières,” Les Charmes produces some of Meursault’s most complete wines—combining power with finesse.

From old vines planted in clay-limestone soils, Chavy's organically managed parcels are vinified with indigenous yeasts and aged in French oak barrels (approximately 25–30% new). The wine showcases the round, textural character of Charmes while preserving tension and freshness—a hallmark of Chavy’s restrained, terroir-driven style.
