J Moreau et Fils Chardonnay de Bourgogne

In 1814 the young cooper Jean-Joseph Moreau settled in Chablis where he married the daughter of a local wine grower. The house of J. Moreau & Fils was thus created.After having been a pioneer in the Chablis region, J. Moreau & Fils has become one of the biggest Chablis producers over the years, as well as one of the oldest and most active négociants-éléveurs of the Chablis region, recognised for its know-how and the style of its wines which respect the terroir and are enjoyed today in over 80 countries. The grapes are harvested at full maturity, crushed, de-stemmed and pressed before undergoing enzyme addition and cold settling. The juice is then racked. Fermented under controlled temperatures and matured on the lees. Le Terret is an old grape variety from the Languedoc, also called ''Bourret'', it is a hardy grape variety which is cultivated around the Bassin de Thau lake. It is chosen for the freshness it gives to its dry white wines. In combination with Chardonnay it has produced a wine of brilliant pale gold colour, with a fruity nose full of citrus aromas. The palate is fresh, with notes of green apple and lemon, good vivacity and nice finish. (12 x 75 cl)

Uncommon in Burgundy, Sauvignon Blanc grown just outside the Chablis area produces very crisp and steely wines with the classic gooseberry character. Now in a smart 'antique' bottle. (12 x 75 cl)
