A Christian Moreau classic! This Chablis is a very bright and crisp expression of Chablis with a classic, taut structure and refreshing minerality that define traditional Chablis. The wine has notes of green apple, candied lemon peel, and slight crushed oyster shell minerality with complexity and generous fruit.
This wine is extremely versatile, it can be served as an aperitif, before a meal, with a variety of vegetable dishes, to white meats and seafood.
This vineyard is located in the village of Chablis, in the very heart of the Chablis country, on the left bank of the Serein River, with a south-south east exposure. It is located in the climat Les Pargues. The soil is kimmeridgien calcareously clay which goes back to the upper Jurassic age
About the Winery:
The Moreau family has been rooted in Chablis since 1814. In 2002, Père et Fils (father and son) started Domaine Christian Moreau with their extensive holdings in some of Chablis’s best vineyards. The average age of the vines is over 45 years old, even more depth and concentration to their wines, with the oldest being over 85 years old. Fabien Moreau, the son, is the winemaker, continuously fine tuning to make the best Chablis possible.

“Real Chablis with apples, stone, straw and white peaches. Some pretty lees undertones. Medium-to full-bodied, layered and succulent. Drink now.” James Suckling
