Description
About the Producer
Chavost is the ancestral name of the village which was located between the church of SaintMartin and the hill of Mont-Félix on which a castle once stood. The winery is located in Chavot-Courcourt, south of Épernay, a French town and commune in the Champagne-Ardenne region. The winery was founded in 1946. Today, the vineyards are run by the brilliant young winemaker Fabian Daviaux. His vision is to create a special range of natural wines, a goal he apparently conquered with ease. It is not easy to create elite champagnes without intervention, but he succeeded. Fabian produces wines and markets Chavost Champagnes. Having vinified over a period of 10 years in various parts of the world, he returned home with the idea of vinifying differently and producing atypical champagnes, with as little or no input as possible. The winery works with 5 hectares (12 acres) of hand-harvested vineyards, currently in conversion to organic status.
