Domaine Moreau-Naudet Chablis Les Pargues Vieilles Vignes 2023 1.5L

Description

Product Description:An old-vine Chablis with quiet power and crystalline precision. From 60-year-old vines across three parcels in the Les Pargues lieu-dit, Domaine Moreau-Naudet’s 2023 Vieilles Vignes captures the fine line between concentration and tension. Though classed as a village wine, the site’s position between the Premier Cru vineyards of Montmains and Vosgros, combined with the domaine’s restrained touch, lifts this into near Premier Cru territory. The 2023 growing season produced fruit of exceptional clarity and balance. Fermented with indigenous yeasts, the wine spent around 30 percent of its time in seasoned oak and the rest in stainless steel, building quiet texture without overt influence. The result is a Chablis that speaks clearly of its Kimmeridgian marl and limestone soils, bright, mineral and textural. Presented here in magnum, Les Pargues Vieilles Vignes 2023 offers both immediate appeal and the potential for extended ageing. Its energy, precision and quiet depth reflect the modern, site-driven style that defines Moreau-Naudet’s work in Chablis.
