Domaine Moreau Naudet Chablis Forêts 1er 2023
DOZEN: $1,998.00 or $166.50 each
Vinified in a combination of used oak (30%) and stainless steel, the 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Forêts is one of the highlights from Moreau-Naudet’s portfolio this year, beautifully exemplifying the classical Chablisien character. 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. Virginie Moreau admits that in recent years she has given a slight preference to Forêts over the expressiveness of Vaillons. Readers will be able to make their own conclusions, as both wines come warmly recommended. THE WINE ADVOCATE
Beautiful, quite direct an even a silkiness to these aromas – love it! Extra mineral width panoramic – gorgeously flavoured – very mineral. Much as I loved the Montmains, that’s a greater wine – bravo! Probably for bottling in June. BILL NANSON
