Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
The 2021 Bourgogne Blanc offers up aromas of pear, confit citrus and mint, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate built around racy acids. It's a decided over-performer for the appellation in this vintage. This cuvée will see an 18-month élevage, just like Moreau's grander appellations.

From vines located in Chassagne, the 2021 Bourgogne Blanc has a perfumed bouquet with citrus fruit, white peach and subtle nectarine scents. The palate is lively and effervescent on the entry, a nice sharpness here with a malic, Puligny-esque finish.
