J. Moreau & Fils Chablis Vaucoupin Premier Cru 2020 750 ML

In 1814 Jean-Joseph Moreau, a young cooper, marries a local winemaker’s daughter and inherits the oldest wine House of Chablis. Driven by passion for the vine and traditional values, he runs the business incredibly well and becomes very quickly one of the most important producers of wine in Chablis. He was a pioneer in the region and his success kept on rising.\n\nOver the years, J. Moreau & Fils established on the international market and has become a prestigious House, successful worldwide.\n\nSince 1814, J. Moreau & Fils has been rising to the challenge of the Chablis terroir to bring out the very best of its single grape varietal, Chardonnay, in pursuit of its signature white wines that are complex, elegant, and precisely balanced.\n\nSince 1999, J. Moreau & Fils has developed the original and highly dynamic concept of “viniculture” and, by extension, the profession of “viniculteur.” “Viniculture” is the link between vinification and viticulture, combining two intrinsically linked aspects of winemaking – the work in the vines and that in the winery and cellar.\n\nAt each step, our main asset is the alliance of savoir-faire. This savoir-faire is embodied by Lucie Depuydt, the winemaker who like a jeweler chiseling a gem, combines her geological knowledge to handle the wines carefully and with precaution to both bring out and protect the subtle and very sensitive aromas of Chardonnay grape.\n\nChablis-born Lucie Depuydt, the winemaker for the past seven years, has been sharing her close understanding of the local soil and experience in the world of winemaking.\n\nJ. Moreau & Fils has built a rich cultural heritage since 1814 thanks to its boldness and intransigence. It has been challenging a hostile terroir and seeking exaltation of the Chardonnay, unveiling the inimitable hallmark of the House.
