Moreau Naudet Chablis 2022
It's impossible to discuss the current state of affairs at Domaine Morea-Naudet without mentioning Virginie's husband who died just before the 2016 harvest at just 47 years old. He came from a family of vignerons, as far back as the 17th century, but domaine name itself only came into existence in 1950, following the marriage of Marie Naudet and René Moreau – Stéphane taking on the domaine from his father, Roger, in 1993. Stéphane’s inspiration had been the likes of Vincent Dauvissat and Didier Dagueneau - the later served as further inspiration for the domaine's distinctive label. Today it is Virginie and Stephane's right hand women, Coco leading the domaine forward.
The vineyards are spread across two villages - Préhy and Courgis.One is predominantly limestone and the other is predominantly clay. Vines on average between 20 - 60 year old. 14 - 20 month aging on fine lees. There is no oak for the AOC Chablis, it is entirely stainless steel.
