The estate and the wine |
|
|
Awarded 2 stars by the French wine guide RVF, Domaine Christian Moreau is one of Chablis’ top names, shaping some of the region’s purest expressions. With a strong foothold in the Grand Cru vineyards, this prestigious estate has been on a steady rise. The reasons are clear: organic farming, increasingly precise aging, and an unwavering commitment to quality have pushed it to the highest level.
Now led by Fabien Moreau, the wines have gained even more finesse and precision. The oak is used sparingly, allowing the wine’s bright acidity and crisp minerality to shine while bringing just enough depth and texture. This is a benchmark estate, firmly established among Chablis’ finest. |

The 2021 White Chablis Grand Cru Valmur shows more depth and structure than usual, thanks to its clay-rich soils. Sourced from two parcels totaling one hectare, these 50-year-old vines produce a Chardonnay of remarkable elegance. Aged with restraint—using less than 5% new oak—it preserves its pure fruit expression while showcasing its bold mineral character and impressive depth. A benchmark Chablis Grand Cru, best enjoyed in three to four years, ideally paired with refined fish dishes. |
