Description

This Chardonnay from Christian Moreau, the Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru Magnum 1.5L 2019, is an exquisite wine that can compete with other top-notch Chardonnays from Puligny, Meursault, and Corton-Charlemagne. Its complex and delightful taste features a combination of citrus, green apples, white flowers, fresh herbs, and minerals with a hint of toast.

The magnum size allows for slower aging and better preservation of the wine's quality. The end result is a more appealing flavour and longer lifespan. Additionally, the magnum size can offer benefits in terms of appearance, as it can make a statement on a dinner table or in a cellar.

It's important to note that due to its magnum size, the Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru 2019 may take longer to open up and reach its full potential. It's recommended to wait for at least five years to fully appreciate the wine's flavours and aromas.

Review

Interestingly, this is aromatically quite similar to the Valmur save for the presence of an abundance of floral elements. The super-intense, indeed almost painful, broad-shouldered flavours possess evident minerality and excellent delineation that possess a bracing salinity on the hugely long finale. This too is clearly built for extended cellaring and is going to need at least 5 to 7 before it will be approachable. In a word, excellent.
