The Original Moreau Family Wine • Burgundy Excellence Continues

July 31, 2025

You may be familiar with the name Moreau - and for good reason.  Christian Moreau is synonymous with exceptional Chablis and its choice Grand Cru holdings. Few people know that the Moreau family has been deeply rooted in another Burgundy district, Petit Chablis.  


J. Moreau is a relative of Christian Moreau with the J. Moreau & Fils winery dating back to 1814.  For decades, their Petit Chablis "Les Petits Dieux" has been one of the finest Chardonnays of the region.

 

Showing a pale gold with green highlights, the nose offers intense notes of mandarin and white flowers. The palate is a pure expression of fruit, concentrated and precise, with delightful notes of white peach and pear, all underpinned by a generous structure and a long, mineral, and chalky finish, deeply rooted in its unique terroir. 

 

While Christian Moreau may be known for his extensive Grand Cru holdings in Chablis, J. Moreau & Fils is equally known for their mastery of Petit Chablis. There, on the plateau above the famed slopes of Chablis, the Kimmeridgian clay gives way to Portlandian limestone—producing wines with striking freshness, citrus-driven purity, and minerality.

 

J. Moreau & Fils captures this terroir with precision, crafting a Petit Chablis that overdelivers in every sense. The winery has been synonymous with Chablisienne excellence since 1814. Their commitment to terroir expression and restrained winemaking makes this humble appellation sing with clarity and finesse.

 

This is a versatile and elegant Chablis, perfect as an aperitif or paired with oysters, fish tapas, or even poultry and white meats. It is a perfect Chardonnay for the summer and going into the fall.

 

Enjoy!
