Domaine Moreau-Naudet, a family estate with roots dating back to the 1950s, is celebrated for its commitment to expressing the purest form of Chablis terroir. The 'Montée de Tonnerre' 1er Cru is a standout cuvée, showcasing the precision and minerality characteristic of this esteemed Premier Cru vineyard.
- WINEMAKER: Virginie Moreau, continuing the legacy of her late husband, Stéphane Moreau
- FARMING: Sustainable practices with a focus on low intervention
- VARIETY: 100% Chardonnay
- TERROIR: Sourced from a one-hectare parcel of 50-year-old vines within the lieu-dit Chapelot in the Montée de Tonnerre vineyard. The soils are sandy with a rocky topsoil rich in Kimmeridgian limestone, contributing to the wine's pronounced minerality.
- VINIFICATION: Fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, with approximately two-thirds in stainless steel and one-third in oak, allowing for a balance between freshness and complexity.
- AGING: Aged on fine lees to enhance texture and depth, with bottling occurring after sufficient maturation to preserve the wine's vibrant character.
- TASTING NOTES: Pale gold in color with a luminous clarity. The nose reveals aromas of white peach, citrus zest, and wet stone, intertwined with subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is precise and mineral-driven, offering flavors of green apple, lemon, and a hint of salinity, leading to a long, crisp finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal with seafood dishes such as oysters, scallops, and grilled fish, as well as goat cheese and light poultry preparations.
- SCORES: 94 points – Tim Atkin MW: "This is a temptress between its lush summer fruits and ample girth.
