2022 Domaine Moreau-Naudet Vaillons, Chablis Premier Cru, France (375ml)
$46.00
While there is far from a recipe in the cellar, Domaine Moreau-Naudet's premier crus and single grand cru wine follow a very consistent fermentation and aging regimen. Fermentation is always with indigenous yeast, followed by a long maceration on lees. The wine is then aged for an average of 18 months (varies according to the vintage) on lees in a combination of stainless steel and 600-liter French oak barrels of which only 20% is new. (Most of the wine is aged in stainless steel, with around 2/3 in steel and 1/3 in oak.). Moreau-Naudet's holdings in Vaillons are around 1.7 hectares of 35-50 year old vines.
