Moreau-Naudet, a distinguished estate in Chablis, is celebrated for its commitment to biodynamic farming and minimal intervention winemaking. The 'Vaillons' 1er Cru 2022 exemplifies their dedication to expressing the purity and minerality of Chablis' premier terroirs.
- WINEMAKER: Virginie Moreau
- FARMING: Certified biodynamic practices
- VARIETY: 100% Chardonnay
- TERROIR: Sourced from approximately 1.7 hectares within the Vaillons 1er Cru vineyard, including parcels in Roncière, Séchet (with 75-year-old vines), and Epinottes. The soils are characterized by Kimmeridgian limestone, imparting a distinctive minerality to the wine.
- VINIFICATION: Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts, followed by an extended lees aging period of up to three months to enhance texture and complexity. Approximately 10% of the wine is aged in oak barrels to add subtle depth without overshadowing the wine's freshness.
- AGING: Aged on fine lees for several months, with about 10% of the wine maturing in oak barrels to achieve a harmonious balance between richness and vibrancy.
- TASTING NOTES: The 2022 'Vaillons' 1er Cru Chablis presents a luminous pale gold hue. Aromas of white flowers, green apple, and citrus zest intertwine with subtle notes of wet stone and a hint of brioche. On the palate, the wine is precise and elegant, showcasing flavors of lemon curd, pear, and a touch of almond, all framed by a vibrant acidity and a lingering mineral-driven finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: This Chablis pairs exquisitely with seafood dishes such as oysters, scallops, and lobster, as well as poultry in creamy sauces, and soft cheeses like Camembert or Brie.
