Continuity in Chablis
Domaine Moreau-Naudet is firmly rooted in Chablis and is today regarded as one of the region’s most respected contemporary estates. The domaine gained international recognition under Stéphane Moreau, whose uncompromising focus on vineyard precision and purity of expression elevated the house to a new level. Following his untimely passing in 2016, the estate has been led by his wife, Virginie Moreau, who continues his philosophy with the same discipline and clarity of vision.
The vineyards are planted on classic Kimmeridgian limestone soils, rich in fossilised marine sediments that form the geological backbone of Chablis. The domaine works parcels across village level and several Premier Crus, including Montmains, Forêts and Vaillons. Careful vineyard management is essential in this cool, marginal climate, where frost risk and slow ripening demand exact timing and measured decisions throughout the growing season.
