[SOLD-OUT] Christian Moreau Chablis 2019

INTENSE, VIBRANT AND DEEPLY FLAVOUR CHABLIS

 

"One of the oldest and most respected names in Chablis, the Moreau family possess magnificent, certified organic, vineyard holdings built up over generations (including nearly 8 hectares out of Chablis’ total 92 hectares of Grand cru). This small but remarkable estate has established itself as one of the leading makers of Chablis producing consistently outstanding wines. It lead Burghound.com to say, "The quality here is again so good that I’m tempted to say that Chablis has yet another leading light to add to the usual stars of Raveneau and Dauvissat”. 

These are wines of precision, crystal clear typicity, and elegance, that will age classically while enabling tremendous enjoyment throughout their lives.  A combination of exceptional vineyard sites, old vines, brilliant winemaking and fastidious care in every step of production has resulted in these wines being regarded as amongst the very best produced in Chablis. 

This comes mostly from very old vines situated in Les Pargues on the hill located between the Premier Cru sites of Montmains and Vosgros. This terroir has historically always been very highly regarded by locals and produces wines of extra depth and character." - Moreau Family

”This is aromatically similar if perhaps just a bit riper. There is again excellent intensity to the vibrant and attractively textured medium weight flavors that offer just a bit more overall depth and persistence. While presently slightly firmer, this too should be approachable young if that’s your preference." - Burghound.com

"The 2019 Chablis Village is matured in stainless steel tank for 10 months. It has a tightly wound bouquet with scents of orange blossom and a touch of tinned apricot; good delineation here. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, and lively from the start, offering plenty of citrus fruit joined by desiccated orange peel and a touch of spice on the finish. Excellent." - Neil Martin
