Product Information:
This Petit Chablis comes from a prime location, perched atop the Grand Cru hill, just metres from the renowned Grand Cru Valmur. Additionally, the wine includes grapes from another very small 0.4 ha planting at the crest of the hill, just above Vaudésir, that the Moreau family has more recently cultivated. Despite its humble classification as a Petit Chablis, this wine exhibits great depth and detail, offering incredible value. It boasts a gorgeous, grapey, and lime-laden nose, with clear-cut, fine acidity, and wonderfully juicy notes on the palate.

With only limited quantities produced, there's a strong emphasis on the "petit." This is the smallest holding after the minuscule 0.41 ha of Clos des Hospices dans Les Clos. Fortunately, Australia and Norway receive the lion’s share of this tiny production, as it’s too small to be distributed widely elsewhere. Don’t delay, as this wine always sells out quickly!

Maker:
Domaine Christian Moreau is a historic name in Chablis, with the current generation led by Christian Moreau and his son Fabien Moreau, who carry on the family’s legacy. With nearly 8 hectares of Grand Cru holdings out of Chablis’ total 92 hectares, this small but exceptional estate has become one of the leading producers of Chablis, consistently crafting remarkable wines. Although their holdings in Petit, Village, and Premier Cru Chablis are relatively small, the estate’s true highlights lie in its Grand Cru vineyards. They own approximately 3 hectares in Les Clos, 0.41 hectares in Clos des Hospices dans Les Clos, as well as smaller holdings in Valmur, Blanchots, and Vaudésir. Domaine Christian Moreau continues to produce must-try wines from the classic climats of Chablis.

Vineyard:
The exceptional vineyard sites, combined with old vines and meticulous winemaking, result in some of the finest wines in Chablis. The estate has been certified organic since 2013, and their commitment to organic farming has enhanced the expression of their vineyards. Investments in new tanks and modern winemaking techniques have yielded impressive results in each vintage. Wines from Domaine Christian Moreau Père et Fils are renowned for their precision, clear typicity, and elegance. These wines not only age gracefully but also offer immense pleasure at every stage of their development.

Fabien Moreau, who took over as winemaker in 2002, has brought a fresh perspective to the estate, combining his experience in New Zealand with a deep respect for the terroir. The wines of Christian Moreau Père et Fils are authentic, distinctive, and of exceptional quality, continuing to uphold the family’s legacy.
