Domaine David Moreau

David Moreau greeted me at this winery in Santenay. Alongside Jean-Marc Vincent, he is leading the way for the appellation that is still undervalued by cognoscenti.

“We have a late rootstock and prune hard and late (Guyot-Poussard) leaving three or four buds on the cane, so we did not do any green harvest,” Moreau explains. “The vines never really suffered from drought – there was always some water. We had no real heat until September 7 to 12 and we chose not to pick in this period. There were some shriveled berries. The whites were picked on September 4 and 6. We started the reds on September 13 when temperatures were cooler. We were expecting rain but there was a huge storm. The vines did not really absorb that water though we did suffer some [soil] erosion. We had higher yields than usual—between 45 hl/ha to 50 hl/ha for the reds. All the 2023s were racked three weeks previously. The reds include 10% to 25% whole clusters and matured in 10-15% new oak, bottling between January and March. It is a refreshing vintage but with flesh surrounding the tannins.”
