no added sulfur

In 2019, Franck Chavy’s sulfite-free Régnié is a full-bodied, round wine, harmoniously balancing body, freshness, and dark fruit notes that evolve into strawberry upon aeration. Another success—a masterful technical execution with no unpleasant surprises upon opening—this wine delivers all its richness and indulgent character on the palate. A must-try!

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2019 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

The son and grandson of winemakers, Franck Chavy settled in 1991 on a few hectares of Morgon. Through acquisitions and sharecropping arrangements, he has expanded his estate, which now covers 9.5 hectares, while establishing himself in the Guide, where he is considered a sure bet. This track record is undoubtedly due in part to his high-density vineyard plantings (10,000 vines per hectare) and extended maceration periods.
