Flight 2 (1 Note)

  • 2006 Moreau-Naudet & Fils Chablis 89 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis

    Light flowery nose, complex and attractive.
    Still a little austere and needs up to five years more in the cellar, this wine has great balance and good mouth feel, already attractive, good length.

Flight 3 (1 Note)

  • 2005 Moreau-Naudet & Fils Chablis 1er Cru Montmains 94 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru

    Very attractive, peachy, creamy nose with good complexity and a hint of aging.
    Elegant, good balance, very complex, weighty with great length. This wine is still a bit austere and the oak is evident. It would benefit from another five years in the cellar.

Flight 4 (1 Note)

  • 2004 Moreau-Naudet & Fils Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 89 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru

    Quite a vegetal nose (peas), patience yields some sweetish fruit.
    There's excellent minerality in the taste but this wine needs up to eight more years to integrate, it's far from at its best.

Flight 5 (1 Note)

  • 2006 Verget Chablis Terroir de Chablis 76 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis

    An oaky nose, vegetal notes (peas), quite attractive.
    Although there's a fruity attack, you get the feel of alcohol, there's a lack of balance - not a classic chablis.

Flight 7 (1 Note)

  • 2006 Verget Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 92 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru

    The nose is fascinating, very flowery and fruity, complex.
    Fruity (grapefruit), flinty, good balance, need up to ten years to smooth out the austerity, full and complex, great length.

Flight 8 (1 Note)

  • 2006 Verget Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 86 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru

    A fruity nose with grass cushioning.
    Still very oaky, youthful and has a long way to go, plenty of fruit and minerality, this won't peak for another 15 years.
