90-93 The Wine Advocate 
The most generously structured premier cru in the Moreau-Naudet portfolio this year, 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains derives from four climats in this premier cru, including Butteaux. Its delicately sun-kissed fruit and expressiveness encouraged Virginie Moreau to vinify it entirely in stainless steel. Jumping from the glass with aromas of pear, pastries and tangerine zest, it’s full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, having attained 13.5% alcohol. While it may feel richest today, it will generously reward patience. - Reviewed by: Kristaps Karklins

Their parcel of Montmains is small, just 0.65 hectare, and made up of on average 55 year old vines planted in a soil rich in blue clay (bleu d'argile). The domaine has one plot in Montmains itself, two in, Butteaux and one in Vieux Mulot, old vines across the piece. Montmains is on the opposite flank of the valley to Vaillons. Montmains sees less oak. Only about 10% used cooperage.

Winemaking: Fermented entirely in steel. Aged 24 months 1/3 in 1 year-old 600 liters French oak barrels and in 400 liters 1 year-old French oak barrels, and 2/3 in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks. Barrels are shaped with hot water.
