Moreau-Naudet 'Vaillons' Chablis 1er Cru 2023

Moreau-Naudet 'Vaillons' Chablis 1er Cru 2023

  • TASTING NOTE: “Opening from the glass with an expressive bouquet of tangerine zest, white flowers, pear and oyster shell, it’s followed by a medium to full-bodied palate with ample chalky extract and a saline finish. It’s broader than Beauregard but simultaneously racier than Montmains.” 92-94 Points - Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate 
  • ABOUT THE WINE: On the left bank of the Serein and on the mid-slope, Vaillons is a particularly well-positioned Premier Cru that enjoys an excellent reputation thanks to the work of several key growers. The Domaine works with vines planted in 1974 in the lieux-dits of Les Epinottes (a cooler part of the vineyard) and RonciĂšres (which provides more flesh). Then, a parcel of 75-year-old vines in SĂ©cher usually accounts for 30% of the blend and provides intense mineral cut and structure. The wine fermented and aged in both tank and older barrels, including some 600-litre barrels. Each parcel was vinified separately before blending. Bibendum
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: After the passing of StĂ©phane Moreau, the Domaine continues to thrive with Virginie Moreau leading the charge. Moreau-Naudet maintains small holdings among the most pedigreed crus of Chablis. In the vineyard, organic viticulture, hand harvesting, low yields and late picking are key while in the winery whole berry pressing, natural yeast fermentation, minimal use of sulfur, natural settling and long, slow Ă©levage in large oak are all part of the Moreau-Naudet process. Moreau-Naudet’s wines are intense with mineral freshness interwoven through pulpy and sexy fruit. Their annual releases are fast becoming as anticipated as those from the big guns at Raveneau and Dauvissat.
