Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, September 6, 2016 - Opened in memory of Stephane Moreau, the property's vigneron, who passed away suddenly last week at a ridiculously young age. Full yellow, perhaps a glimmer of brown as well. Unmistakably musky, soup stock brothiness of Chablis. Medium weight, outstanding, harmonious feel. If one can actually pick out fruit, I would say it is most expressive of apple, but any fruit is just a background element to the swirl of more primordial flavors. Excellent acidity although not terribly mineral. I would note that the wood which was quite noticeable through 2014 has now been fully integrated and cannot be tasted. A sentimental bottle for sure since we met this talented young winemaker in Chablis in 2009 before he was widely discovered in either Europe or the U.S., and a fittingly outstanding showing.
