Grands Ruchottes sits high on the Chassagne hillside, where the topsoil thins to just 25-40cm over solid limestone bedrock — the locals call it 'roche mare,' the mother rock. The result is one of the most chiseled, mineral-driven Premiers Crus in the village, often spoken of in the same breath as a Grand Cru. Bernard Moreau's parcel was planted in 1939, and the wine carries that old-vine depth: powerful, tightly wound, profoundly stony, with the structure to age for a decade or more. The 2020 vintage adds ripe citrus flesh to the wine's signature tension. This is one of the great expressions of Chassagne, full stop.

"The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Grands Ruchottes 1er Cru has an engaging apple blossom and crushed stone scented bouquet with just the slightest reduction. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, taut and fresh with a very mineral-driven, calcaire finish that leaves the tongue tingling with glee. Superb." —Neal Martin

More about Bernard Moreau et Fils

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.
