The Moreau family has been settled in the heart of Chablis since 1884. Louis Moreau, the sixth generation, studied oenology and viticulture in California and took over from his father when he returned to France in 1994. Nowadays, the domaine's vineyards extend all over the four levels of the appellation: Petit Chablis, Chablis, Premier Cru and Grand Cru.
Located over the village of Viviers, this parcel was selected because of its soil and exposure, producing the purest expression of the best Chablis climats. Benefiting from a rich soil and privileged exposure, this wine develops aromas of fleshy yet delicate fruits (pear, quince) combined with undergrowth notes (mushrooms) that give it complexity and length worthy of Premier cru wines.
An ideal pairing for this wine would be a roasted poultry straight out of a buttermilk bath, which imparts delicious tangy flavour.
An elegant wine with crisp acidity in precise balance with the ripe palate of citrus and peach fruit.
