Tasting Notes
Moreau’s villages wine is drawn from 20-30 year old vineyards in Préhy and Courgis, in the south of Chablis. This is raised entirely in tank—it’s not until theVieilles Vignes level and above that Moreau starts utilising (older) barrels. Nonetheless, this spends 20 months on lees, considerably longer than the vast majority of tank reared Chablis. The fruit is also subject to a very gentle 4 hour press, and the juice is fermented with natural yeasts (again a rarity in Chablis). These traditional methods, along with the hand harvesting, the quality of the terroir, the low yields and the full ripeness levels at which the fruit was harvested, helps to explain the fabulous texture, depth and quality that is on offer here. It’s also worth noting that this second shipment is showing even more tension than our first. In short, this is terrific Chablis that’s already in a good place. - Importer Note
Less is more! Minimal intervention or Lo-fi wines encapsulate those producers who keep additions and manipulations to a minimum during the winemaking process. This means the wines are wild fermented, unfiltered and unfined, and only add sulfur during the process.
