Chauvet Jules

The French private scholar and viticulture expert Jules Chauvet (1907-1989), whose family owned a wine trading house, devoted his life to the topic of wine production. After graduating from high school, he engaged in biochemical fundamental research and also maintained his own private laboratory. After World War II, he focused on oenology research and worked closely with research laboratories in Paris. He published his findings in articles in viticulture journals (e.g., La Bourgogne Viticole).

Classification of Sites

Chauvet classified the different sites in Beaujolais and partly in Burgundy based on taste descriptions and systematically recorded this. Some of his assistants later held high positions at French universities and at the INAO. Furthermore, he maintained contacts with many French wine-growing institutions, many of whose prominent representatives conducted research stays with him and benefited from his work.
