      An articulate expression of Chablis’ Premier Cru Forêts from a domaine at the height of its form. Domaine Moreau-Naudet’s 2023 release reveals extraordinary precision and depth, a benchmark example of modern Chablis crafted with quiet confidence. The fruit is organically farmed and hand-harvested from mature Chardonnay vines anchored in the limestone-rich soils of the Forêts climat, a site renowned for producing wines of tension and detail. Fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts across stainless steel and seasoned oak, followed by extended lees contact to enhance texture and complexity. Bottling takes place without fining or heavy filtration, ensuring purity of expression.

      The 2023 season delivered moderate warmth and cool evenings, preserving acidity while allowing even ripening. The resulting wine carries both mineral definition and gentle fruit weight, delivering a seamless interplay between salinity, citrus and subtle stone fruit. Presented here in magnum format, it promises slower development and an even finer articulation of terroir over time, an elegant, unforced reflection of Moreau-Naudet’s mastery of Premier Cru Forêts.

      Domaine Moreau-Naudet Chablis 1er Cru Forêts 2023 1.5L

      Wafting from the glass with a deep bouquet of beeswax, orange zest and pear, mingling with oyster shell, it’s medium to full-bodied, layered and tense, with vibrant acidity and excellent cut. It concludes with a pure, chalky finish

      — Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate, 92–94 pts

      Beautiful, quite direct and even a silkiness to these aromas – love it! Extra mineral width panoramic – gorgeously flavoured – very mineral

      — Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report

      Domaine Moreau-Naudet

      When Stéphane Moreau took over his family’s Chablis estate in 1993, he quietly reshaped its future. Influenced by Burgundy’s most revered growers—Vincent Dauvissat, Didier Dagueneau, and Clos Rougeard’s Nadi Foucault—he reintroduced time-honoured, pre-industrial methods that brought a new clarity and complexity to the wines. His deep curiosity and instinctive talent positioned Domaine Moreau-Naudet as one of the most exciting names in Chablis, championing an expression of terroir that was tactile, precise, and anything but conventional.

      Following Stéphane’s untimely passing in 2016, his wife Virginie Moreau and assistant winemaker Coco chose to carry on the work he’d started. With the support of a tight-knit circle of growers and a clear commitment to the estate’s original philosophy, they have ensured continuity—both in spirit and in quality. Under Virginie’s watch, the domaine hasn’t just survived; it has strengthened its standing, earning a coveted two-star rating in *La Revue du Vin de France*, just behind Raveneau and Dauvissat.
