Bernard Moreau, Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge 'Vieilles Vignes' 2018

Bernard Moreau is like the Ralph Lauren of Burgundy: His wines aren't the cool new thing, but they're classic in a way that is increasingly rare and will likely never go out of style. Moreau's wines skew towards rich, but never lack vibrancy and clarity. He’s most closely associated with the great vineyards of Chassagne-Montrachet and the stellera grand crus of Chevalier-Montrachet and Batard Montrachet. Though most famous for his chardonnay's, he makes a small amount of earthy, elegant pinot too that, like all of Moreau’s wines, punches well above its weight.

This wine is peppery, earthy, and deeply aromatic.
