“Winemaking is not a recipe” – Alex Moreau
Bernard and sons Alex and Benoit have climbed rapidly to the top tier of Chassagne production with wines of vibrancy and individual personality. A huge amount of thinking goes into handcrafting of the wines, from careful timing of when the grapes are picked (for the right level of acidity), to tasting the musts and wines at all stages of élevage before deciding what course of action to take. Nothing is done by rote – the Moreaus respond to the characteristics of their developing wine to bring out the best of every vintage.
