Christian Moreau Pere & Fils Description

Christian Moreau Chablis 1er Cru Vaillon is a true reflection of the terroir's ancient secrets. Blessed with a south, south-east exposure on the left bank of the Serein River, this wine boasts an alluring, crystalline minerality that's intimately entwined with the kimmeridgien clay soil, peppered with the fossilized whispers of Exogyra virgula oysters.

Harvested by hand and crafted with precision, this Chablis unleashes a symphony of sensations. The pneumatic winepress and cool racking preserve the grape's purity, while natural yeasts weave their magic, creating a wine that is both generous and delicate. A masterful blend of 55% stainless steel vats and 45% oak barrels, aged for 8 months, delivers a harmonious fusion of fruit and minerality, balanced by a natural tartaric stabilization.

As you take your first sip, the vintage's early spring blossoms emerge, dancing playfully with the tension imparted by a hot, dry summer. A bouquet of ripe fruits and white flowers pirouettes across your palate, intertwining seamlessly with an undercurrent of classic Chablis minerality.

The Christian Moreau Chablis 1er Cru Vaillon is the ultimate partner for an array of gastronomic delights. Its vibrant acidity and refreshing mineral backbone make it a natural companion for the delicate flavors of seafood – think succulent oysters, pan-seared scallops, or butter-poached lobster.

This versatile Chablis also shines alongside poultry and white meats, creating a harmonious balance with dishes such as creamy chicken fricassee or tender veal piccata. And for a more unexpected pairing, consider serving it with a creamy mushroom risotto or a tangy goat cheese salad to amplify the symphony of flavors in each bite.

Here too there is a whiff of lychee on the ripe aromas of white and yellow peach, white flower and zest, all of which is trimmed in discreet wood influence. The notably finer medium weight flavors possess very fine mid-palate concentration while delivering solid length on the bitter lemon, clean, dry and nicely sleek finish.
