Christian Moreau Chablis Clos des Hospices dans Les Clos Grand Cru 2022

One of the oldest and most respected names in Chablis with superb vineyard holdings reflecting the families very long history in Chablis, this branch of the Moreau family is headed by Christian and now his son Fabien who is the winemaker and manager.

Possessing magnificent vineyard holdings built up in some of the very best vineyard areas of Chablis by the family over generations (including nearly 8 hectares out of Chablis’ total 92 hectares of Grand cru), this small but remarkable estate has in just a few years established itself as one of the leading producers of Chablis producing consistently outstanding wines.

This cuvée of Clos des Hospices is located inside the main appellation of les Clos. It is a parcel of 0,5ha bought by the Moreau family from the Hospices of Chablis in 1904. It has always been vinified separately since then.

With the same south exposure and clay-limestone soil of les Clos, this parcel (the average age of the vine is 40 years old) benefits from more the erosion, deeper soil and is even more predominantly composed of fine clay. It produces an exceptional full-bodied and generous wine.
