Slightly more apparent wood (though still nicely subtle) is present on the overtly floral-suffused nose where notes of lemongrass, mineral reduction and iodine add breadth. There is impressive volume to the powerful and delineated yet reasonably refined larger-scaled flavors that where the texture is akin to sucking on tiny rocks. The balanced bone-dry finish is refreshingly crisp in no small part thanks to the citrus-tinged acidity. Note that the abundant dry extract should allow this to be approachable after only 3 to 4 years if desired. 94 -AM

One of the greatest things about white Burgundy is the myriad expressions we encounter, from just one grape—the noble Chardonnay. The terroir of different villages and different vineyards makes tasting these wines a study in comparison and contrast.

From the northern reaches of Chablis down to the Mâcon, there are excellent winemakers whose wines we seek out each year. For excellent village, 1er Cru and Grand Cru Chablis, perfectly balanced and exquisitely mineral, we reach for Domaine Christian Moreau.

Antonio Galloni

AG 94

"The 2020 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a tightly-wound bouquet that needs coaxing from the glass, eventually revealing wet pavement, fern, flint and light citrus scents. The palate is taut, fresh and well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity; the 2020 gains weight towards the finish with a long, lightly spiced aftertaste that urges you back for another sip. Great potential." -Vinous

Wine Spectator

WS 93

"A rich, almost opulent style, this white delivers melon, apple, lemon cake and lanolin aromas and flavors backed by a lively structure. Ends with lingering notes of seashore and stone, along with a tactile sensation."

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
