Vinified entirely in tank, the 2024 Chablis exhibits aromas of lemon peel, spring flowers and youthful reduction, followed by a medium- to full-bodied, racy palate framed by bright acids and concluding with a saline finish, though it lacks the concentration achieved in more favorable vintages.

This estate has seen no less than five generations, but it only marketed its first bottles in 1991. Today, Virginie Moreau presides over this 25-hectare domaine following the premature passing of Stéphane Moreau in 2016. The order of the day is organic farming (though without certification, which allows for the use of stronger treatments in more challenging vintages), harvesting ripe yet clean fruit cropped at modest yields and with extended maturation—18 months on the lees in a combination of used oak barrels (mostly 228-liter, averaging 10 years old) and stainless steel, with final settling in tank for two to four weeks. After a series of sunny vintages, Virginie has started to vinify more wine in tank (Montmains and Valmur are now matured entirely in stainless steel), as she believes this helps retain more of the classically Chablisien signatures.

These wines are always concentrated and textural, among the most characterful to be found in Chablis. The range of premier cru bottlings is the focus at this address, typically attaining its apogee with the Forêts, Montée de Tonnerre and Vaillons bottlings. Their only grand cru, Valmur, is also well worth seeking out. However, long-term aging risks are to be expected due to variability from natural cork. 

Clay and Kimmeridgean Limestone. Very stony topsoil. Single block located in the middle of an east oriented hillside, contiguous with the 1er Cru Forêt.  One of our go-to Chablis options in the shop we can't recommend more! The vineyards are spread across two villages - Préhy and Courgis. One is predominantly limestone and the other is predominantly clay. Vines on average between 20 - 60 year old. 14-20 months aging on fine lees in stainless steel tanks.
