Alex Moreau Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets 2022 [NET]

$24999

Alex Moreau took over from his father Bernard in 2020 and rebranded the family domaine under his own name in 2021. Caillerets sits on the upper slope of Chassagne-Montrachet, just below the Montrachet grand cru itself, on thin soils over hard limestone bedrock. It's the most mineral and chiseled of the domaine's Chassagne premier crus, more vertical than fleshy. Long pressings, native yeast fermentations, aging predominantly in Francois Freres barrels - the playbook hasn't changed, but the labels have. [NET] indicates special net pricing.

"Much like the Chenevottes, there is a vague whiff of the exotic lurking in the background of the spicy aromas of white peach, wet stone and floral-scented nose. There is again excellent volume and punch to the concentrated and intense medium weight flavors that brim with both minerality and dry extract, all wrapped in a compact, serious and built-to-age finale. This is a block at present but one with excellent development potential."

"Aromas of pear, fresh mint, toasted nuts and white flowers introduce the 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and ethereal wine with a pretty core of fruit, racy acids and a saline finish." —William Kelley
