The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine With 2 stars in the RVF Guide, Domaine Christian Moreau crafts some of the purest expressions of Chablis. This prestigious estate, with a strong presence in Grand Cru vineyards, is experiencing a remarkable rise. The reasons are clear: organic farming, meticulous aging, and unwavering consistency. Their cuvées are now counted among the elite of Chablis!
Wine From a 3-hectare plot on very rocky soils, the 2022 white Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos expresses remarkable consistency thanks to its dense white clay terroirs. This high-class Chardonnay, aged with minimal intervention and less than 5% new oak, delivers pure fruit with a strong mineral character, complemented by great depth and exquisite finesse. A quintessential Burgundy to discover and enjoy in three to four years, especially with cooked fish dishes.
Vinification Hand harvested. Vinification and ageing of 50% of the harvest in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, followed by 9 months in barrels (2/3/4 wine barrels - less than 5% new barrels) for the other half.
Blended for 6 months in vats before bottling. Natural tartaric stabilization after 18 months' ageing.

Certified organic wine.
