About The WIne
This wine is a blend from four different parcels. 1 hectare, on brown clay, is north-west facing, 2 small parcels are on yellow clay facing south (.4 hectares) and the fourth is a small vineyard (.2 hectares) on flat land close to Courgis.
Half of this wine was aged in a 2000 litre barrel which that bought second-hand in 2022. The rest was aged in smaller barrels. Its citrus characteristics are even further enhanced this year because of almost grapefruit-yellow hues.
As always, the labels are created by the multi-talented Olivier.
About Alice and Oliver de Moor
Alice and Olivier de Moor craft extraordinary, cult-status natural wines from coveted small plots in Chablis, Chitry, and the rare Saint-Bris appellation that are highly sought-after in Paris and New York, with justy tiny amounts making it to Australia.
These legendary vignerons have spent over thirty years mastering their craft near the village of Courgis, where brutal cold and ancient Kimmeridgean limestone soils produce minuscule yields of exceptional fruit.
Every grape is meticulously hand-selected, fermented with wild yeasts, and aged in precious old foudre and oak barrels to create wines of stunning purity and complexity, with Olivier's own artistic labels completing these masterpieces that represent the pinnacle of natural winemaking.
