Moreau-Naudet is known for pushing the envelope with its opulent and expressive wines created by picking ripe fruit with limited yields and extended contact on the lees. Over the years, this intriguing style has caught the eye of many, developing a cult following for these wines. Stephane's wife, Virginie, has done an excellent job of upholding his philosophy after his passing with this distinguished style. These are rare wines from Chablis, only making it to the USA in limited quantities.
The Vaillons here have always been so good, with the family holding 1.7 hectares of this great premier cru. Part of the magic here is a plot of 75-year-old vines grown in the Sechet sector, which gives this Vaillons a sappy old vine concentration that meshes so well with the energy of the younger vines spread throughout the vineyard. Always hand-harvested and fermented with natural yeasts, the wines are aged in stainless steel, focusing on purity and creating a fantastic dynamic with the riper fruit.
2020 is a magnificent vintage for Chablis, and this has the potential to be one of the best of all time from Moreau-Naudet. We have low pricing today on a limited amount, and it comes highly recommended.
