2013 Bernard Moreau Bourgogne Blanc
Secondary Description
The Bernard Moreau Bourgogne Chardonnay is 100% oak aged in 4, 5 and 6 year old barrels and was bottled just before harvest in 2014. Intensity is very good for this level of wine and arguably unmatched in the region? Quite complex, some plumpness and good freshness. (CW 3/11/14)

From vines located in Chassagne-Montrachet and 100% barrel fermented in used barrels (they are keen to keep the same method of maturation as the rest of the crus), the 2013 Bourgogne had been bottled just before harvest. The nose is well defined and generous with attractive white peach and grapefruit scents. The palate is well balanced, easy-drinking and “direct” in style, not a complex generic white Burgundy, but with a pleasant twist of bitter lemon urging another sip on the finish. Fine. 87 points
