History and Winemaking
Since its founding in 1904, Domaine Louis Moreau has been a benchmark for Chablis wines. Managed by the sixth generation of the Moreau family, the estate boasts 65 hectares of vineyards situated on the region’s most distinguished limestone, clay, and fossil-rich soils.
The 2023 Chablis reflects the estate’s meticulous approach to winemaking. Grapes are hand-harvested from vines rooted in Chablis’ unique terroir, ensuring their distinct character shines through. Fermentation is carried out entirely in stainless steel tanks using indigenous yeasts, preserving the Chardonnay’s freshness and vibrant fruit profile. The wine is aged on fine lees for at least four months, adding texture and complexity.
