Domaine Christian Moreau Pere & Fils

When Christian Moreau reclaimed his vineyards from American spirit company Hiram Walker in time for the 2002 vintage, he immediately set about restoring the vineyards and the reputation of the Moreau name in Chablis. Today, headed by Christian, himself, and son Fabien, who is the winemaker, the estate has 12 hectares of vineyards, 8 of which are in Grand Cru vineyards including 2.9 hectares in Grand Cru Les Clos which makes Christian Moreau the biggest landowner here. Moreau also has a 4.7 hectare holding in Premier Cru Vaillons.

The vineyards were certified organic in 2013, and biodynamic conversion has started in some of the grand crus. All wines ferment with indigenous yeast and mature in stainless steel, with about 1/3 of all the Premier Cru and Grand Cru wines maturing in barrels of which 10% are new each year. The annual production is around 7,000 cases.

Moreau quickly became a go-to domain for fans of very fine Chablis, and their Premier and Grand Cru wines are in high demand.
