- CHABLIS PREMIER CRU 'VAILLONS' LOUIS MOREAU 2022 DESCRIPTION
- The Chablis Premier Cru Vaillons by Louis Moreau is the label created to enhance the characteristics of this prized cru, which is located on the left bank of the Serein river, right in front of the prestigious area occupied by the Grand Crus of the Appellation. It comes from vineyards that always guarantee an excellent level of ripeness of the grapes, capable of giving rich and intense aromas. The charm of the wine lies precisely in the perfect balance between the clear mineral freshness, typical of the northern Chardonnay and the notes of a ripe and expressive fruit. Smooth, intense and deep, thanks to a long refinement in steel, it enhances the varietal typicality of the great Chardonnay of northern Burgundy.
- The Premier Cru Vaillons Chablis is the result of over a century of experience and deep knowledge of the territory. An extraordinary raw material and great care in the vineyard allow us to obtain a Chardonnay of excellent quality. The grapes come from a 4
- hectare parcel located within the Premier Cru Vaillons, with a south
- west exposure. This is an old vineyard planted in 1945 on very suitable soils, consisting of calcareous marl, which produces a few perfectly ripe bunches with very intense and concentrated aromas. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18 °C, with indigenous yeasts and lasts about 15
- 18 days. After malolactic fermentation and a light filtration, the wine ages on the fine lees for at least a year before being bottled.
- Louis Moreau's Premier Cru Vaillons is a Chablis with an intense face and generous fruit, which well represents the character of this famous area of the Appellation. It has a light yellow color with bright golden reflections. The olfactory profile is rich and intense, with fragrant aromas of white
- fleshed fruit, floral nuances, balsamic hints, iodine and mineral sensations. On the palate it is full
- bodied, elegant and smooth, with a satisfying and rich fruit, which leads harmoniously to a savory and very fresh finish. A great white, perfect for a seafood dinner. Also worth trying with a platter of fresh cheeses.
