Domaine Moreau-Naudet - Chablis - 2021

Contributing to the quality of this wine is the vine age in Moreau’s tiny parcel (on average 50-plus years old) and the meagre yields they give (15-25 hl/ha is typical). Vinified with 20% barrels, it’s a sleek and succulent wine with ripe pear and chamomile and vibrant, mouth-watering acidity that balances out the flowing, silky textured fruit. Finishes with typical Chablisien stony focus and chalky tautness. Importer Notes, Bibendum The 2021 Chablis Village is a success, exhibiting more classic aromas of citrus zest, white flowers and minerals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural palate girdled by racy structuring acids and concluding with a saline finish. With a balance that recalls the Chablis of yesteryear, it should age with grace. 89+ Points William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
