Product Details
Description
Domaine Louis Moreau Chablis 2023 is a bright and elegant white wine that perfectly captures the essence of Chablis. Made from 100% Chardonnay, it displays the purity and minerality for which this region is so well known. The wine is pale gold with a touch of green, radiating freshness and vibrancy.
On the nose, you’ll find fresh aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers, complemented by subtle hints of wet stone and flint. These carry through to the palate, where the wine bursts with lively flavours of citrus, ripe pear, and the signature chalky minerality Chablis is famous for. The crisp acidity balances the fruit perfectly, giving it energy and freshness. The finish is long, clean, and elegant, making this a wonderful example of a refined Burgundy white wine.
History and Winemaking
Since 1904, Domaine Louis Moreau has crafted Chablis that showcases the region’s finest qualities. Today, the estate is led by the sixth generation of the Moreau family, who continue to focus on wines that highlight Chablis’ unique terroir. The 2023 vintage uses hand-harvested grapes from vines grown in limestone-rich soils. The wine ferments in stainless steel tanks with native yeasts, preserving the natural freshness of the Chardonnay. It then ages on fine lees for four months, adding texture and complexity.
