Domaine Bernard Moreau Cellar Visit and Tasting

One of my favorite stops in all of Burgundy. The wines keep getting better. We did not have time to go through the entire lineup, but got great representation from bottom to top.

• 2013 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chardonnay Bourgogne Blanc

  France, Burgundy, Bourgogne Blanc

  Tasting at the domaine. Apple and pear on nose and palate. Forward, balanced and well textured for its level. Slightly simple, but an excellent wine value.

• 2013 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet

  Tasting at the domaine. Floral start with lots of Apple throughout. Bright, energetic and well textured. Usually my favorite Chassagne Villages, this 2013 lives up to that standard.

• 2013 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru

  Tasting at the domaine. More dense and weightier than those tasted just before. Also more fruit driven vs texturally-driven, but this brings everything together in an excellent package. Very good.

• 2013 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Bâtard-Montrachet

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru

  Tasted at the domaine. Gets off to a rollicking, voluptuous start with huge fruit and spice. More structure and energy coming through middle to finish. A classic Batard.

• 2014 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet

  Barrel tasting at the domaine. Alex made a quasi-ssemblage. ML done in May. Orchard fruit with lots of spice and tension. Very good balance already. Even better than 2013. Great for its level.

• 2014 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Grandes Ruchottes

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru

  Barrel tasting at the domaine. Just completed ML. Lots of fruit and great density. I like the potential here, but this was the toughest 2014 to assess given its current phase.

• 2014 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Bâtard-Montrachet

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru

  Barrel tasting at the domaine. Ripe and opulent start with rich spice. Much like its 2013 version, this comes together with great focus and clarity from the middle to end, finishing with great grip and textures. An excellent wine in the making.

• 2014 Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils Chevalier-Montrachet

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru

  Barrel tasting at the domaine. Wow. Floral, spice and lots of orchard fruit. As ripe and concentrated as the Batard, but textures simultaneously dancing and enticing your sense. Amazing length. 97-98 point potential.
