Historia
The smallholding of Chauvin was previously part of the ancient grand fiefdom of Corbin. This fiefdom was divided into multiple properties at an auction in 1852. Chauvin was then acquired by Jean Fourcaud-Laussac, who had just bought what was to become Château Cheval Blanc. At this time, major soil drainage work took place on both estates.
Sylvie Cazes and her children Julie, Pierre and François Régimbeau bought Château Chauvin in May 2014. They want to continue the work carried out by the Ondet family while giving Chauvin the assets needed to succeed in this new page in its history.A major restructuring programme was quickly put in place, involving the vineyard, viticultural methods and the winemaking.
Jérémie Gravier, a young agricultural engineer, takes over the technical direction of the château in 2015. He now gives the utmost care to this exceptional terroir. Finally, Julie Régimbeau joined her mother at the head of the property, taking charge of the sales and marketing department. Her mission is to develop the property and its reputation throughout the world.
Major renovation work on the cellars began in January 2021. Architect Philippe Ducos has created a new, innovative vat room, complementary to the existing one, separate barrel cellars, and a new tasting room to allow visitors to discover the property’s wines while taking in the surrounding scenery.
