Chofflet Valdenaire
Chofflet Valdenaire produces Pinot Noir from Givry, a village appellation in Burgundy's Côte Chalonnaise. The winery's portfolio centers on three expressions of the region's signature grape: the entry-level Givry, the premier cru Clos Jus Givry 1er Cru, and the Cuvée Jean Chofflet Givry, which represents the upper range of the lineup. Givry Pinots are known for their balance of red fruit, mineral tension, and moderate weight—wines that reflect the cooler continental climate and limestone-rich soils of the Côte Chalonnaise. Wine Spectator and Decanter have rated the winery's releases, with the Cuvée Jean Chofflet earning particular recognition among prestige critics. The three-tier range allows exploration of how terroir and vineyard classification shape expression within a single appellation.
