The fruit, sourced from mature Chardonnay vines rooted in deep Kimmeridgian marl, is organically farmed and hand-harvested before undergoing natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Ageing occurs on fine lees in a mix of stainless steel and neutral oak, preserving both texture and definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"1003\"\u003eMontmains sits on the left bank of the Serein, where slightly deeper soils and a sunnier exposure create Chablis of volume and warmth. The 2023 vintage captures that profile beautifully, balancing ripe stone fruit and citrus richness with an undercurrent of marine freshness. It stands as the most open and structured of the domaine’s Premier Cru wines this year. Ample and textural, yet lifted by the saline cut that defines Moreau-Naudet’s style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1005\" data-end=\"1162\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1018\" data-end=\"1021\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1025\" data-end=\"1028\"\u003e– Pear \u0026amp; Tangerine Zest\u003cbr data-start=\"1051\" data-end=\"1054\"\u003eA generous, expressive nose of pear, tangerine zest and pastry, with hints of tropical fruit and sea salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1164\" data-end=\"1313\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1170\" data-end=\"1173\"\u003e– Fleshy Mineral Core\u003cbr data-start=\"1194\" data-end=\"1197\"\u003eFull-bodied and lively, showing crisp acidity and a textured mid-palate with ripe fruit tension and mineral drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1447\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1321\" data-end=\"1324\"\u003e– Broad \u0026amp; Persistent\u003cbr data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1347\"\u003eLong, enveloping and structured, with generous weight balanced by Chablis purity and fine tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1838\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1468\" data-end=\"1471\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"1471\" data-end=\"1776\"\u003e“The most generously structured premier cru in the Moreau-Naudet portfolio this year, 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains … Jumping from the glass with aromas of pear, pastries and tangerine zest, it’s full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping … While it may feel richest today, it will generously reward patience.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate, 93 pts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2113\" data-end=\"2387\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"2113\" data-end=\"2348\"\u003e“The 2023 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru has a fresh, stony bouquet … The palate is very well balanced with a slightly petrolly reduction on the entry.
