Moreau was my first appointment in Chablis this year. Fabien and Christian Moreau showed me all of their 2018s and virtually all of their 2017s, save the Blanchot of which there was just one barrel. As always, most of the wines are aged in a combination of stainless steel and oak. The 2018s were blended in April and racked back into tank in preparation for bottling, which was to take place between September 2019 and January 2020. Expressive and inviting, the 2018s show quite a bit of potential along with the forward personality of the year. The 2017s are more precise and also lower in alcohol. The wines have terrific energy to go with the textural richness that is such a signature here. Sadly, frost inflicted heavy losses, especially in the Grand Crus, where yields were down a whopping 70%. Yields in Valmur were 9hl/ha, while in Vaudésir they were closer to 8hl/ha. As mentioned above, in Blanchot, Moreau made just a single barrel of wine. The 1er Cru Vaillons fared quite a bit better. There, yields were down only 10%.
