1er cru
Previously known as Sous le Roche Dumay, the Moreaus have reluctantly had to change the name of this cuvee for administrative reasons. If they hadn`t lit candles in the vineyards, frost would likely have decimated here again in 2017, but happily they avoided that fate. A delicate approach, a touch of both blossom and butter. It fills out mid-palate, delivers a shot of electricity towards the end, then offers a soft, lingering finish. This premier cru really punches above its price point. (NT 20/02/19)

Less peachy than the Bourgogne but still ripe on the nose. Impressive concentration and generosity in the mouth. Singing its heart out. Gives itself to you. And finishes with a light spice and plenty of freshness. So wholehearted. 16.5 points
