The cellars of the Domaine Cheveau are situated in the hamlet of Solutré-Pouilly in the heart of the appellation of Pouilly-Fuissé. The domaine was established by André Cheveau in 1950.

The vineyards dedicated to Chardonnay are composed of the classic clay – limestone composition that provides the perfect ambience to produce the grand wines of Burgundy. 

All harvesting at the Domaine Cheveau is done by hand and the wines are fermented and vinified parcel-by-parcel. Fermentation and aging is done either in barrel or stainless steel tank depending on the particular terroir of each site. 

“Pouilly” is considered *the* great premier cru of Pouilly-Fuissé, the appellation having gained approval for premier cru status of 22 vineyards starting in 2020, and Cheveau owns vines in three of its climats: “Au Buchot” (which they no longer bottle separately), “Morlay”, and “Le Clos”, the oldest of which were planted in 1946. As with all of their wines, the grapes are manually harvested and fermented with native yeast, and the wine is raised on the lees for one year in 600-liter barrels followed by a year in stainless steel tanks. “Pouilly” is the consummate Pouilly: rich but fresh, powerful and vibrant with persistent minerality.
