What is this wine?
Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils, based in Chassagne-Montrachet, has become one of the Côte de Beaune’s most sought-after producers for pure, terroir-expressive Chardonnay. Les Caillerets is considered the crown jewel of Chassagne’s premier crus, with its stony, limestone-rich soils producing wines of remarkable finesse and longevity. The 2020 vintage was warm and generous, but careful farming and balance in the cellar yielded whites of concentration, freshness, and superb aging potential.

Why get this wine?
Moreau’s reputation has soared, and allocations are increasingly scarce. His Caillerets is a reference-point wine for Chassagne—combining richness and depth with laser-like minerality. In the outstanding 2020 vintage, it shows grand cru-level pedigree, making it a highly collectible bottle for Burgundy lovers.

What does this wine taste like?
Ripe pear, citrus, and white peach with notes of hazelnut, white flowers, and crushed stone. Concentrated yet refined, with vibrant acidity and a long, chalky, saline finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Best 2025–2040. Delicious with lobster, scallops, turbot, or roast chicken. Decant if drinking young.

Domaine Bernard Moreau has always been a great producer: superb vineyards, great farming, and careful work in the cellar. It is difficult and painstaking work to improve something that is already near its best. Throughout their long tenure Alex and Benoît Moreau have continued to make tiny improvements year after year, vintage after vintage. Their dedication has paid off and they have reached the top tier of white Burgundy producers. I think of them as the Roulot of Chassagne in terms of leanness, minerality, and letting terroir speak.

Alex and Benoît have been in total control of the domaine since 1999, after completing formal studies and long apprenticeships abroad. Alex is the winemaker, Benoît concentrates on the farming, and they both work on the now extended élevage. These two have reinvigorated their two hundred-year-old family property, the wines are better than they ever have been.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 95
"The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru has quite a primal grapefruit and crushed stone scented bouquet that takes time to unfold in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with orange rind and citrus peel, quite spicy, especially towards the finish with touches of stem ginger. One of Moreau’s finest articulations in terroir in 2020." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 95
"Exhibiting notions of citrus zest, white flowers, crisp green orchard fruit, beeswax and struck match, the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets is medium to full-bodied, satiny and inactive, with tangy acids and a long, penetrating finish. The result of an exchange of grapes, it's a terrific effort." -William Kelley
