Tasting Tips
Powerful but reticent aromas of citrus peel and crushed stone. Distinctly fatter and sweeter but quite stony in the mouth, then dry on the back, even austere. This seems sweet, notes Christian Moreau, but it''s actually very low in residual sugar. Serious, backward wine, finishing stony and quite dry. I''d give this at least five years. The Clos des Hospices, located low on the hill and therefore featuring a bit more humidity, normally does best in dry years like 2003 and 2005, notes Moreau. 92-94 Steve Tanzer NovDec 2006
Winery
One of the oldest and most respected names in Chablis, this branch of the Moreau family is headed by Christian and now his son Fabien who is the winemaker and manager. Possessing magnificent vineyard holdings built up in some of the very best vineyard areas of Chablis by the family over generations (including nearly 8 hectares out of Chablis total 92 hectares of Grand cru), this small but remarkable estate has in just a few years established itself as one of the leading producers of Chablis producing consistently outstanding wines.
