Les Beauregards is one of the coolest of all the Chablis Premiers Crus, due to its altitude (300 metres ASL) and location (at the very end of Chablis’ Left Bank). It’s also one of the steepest sites, meaning the clay soils are shallow, and the limestone is never far from the surface. While Moreau-Naudet's tiny, 0.16-hectare parcel has been in the Estate for decades, it was replanted in 2001 with mass-selection cuttings from the family’s most treasured vines. Now that the new vines have reached 20 years’ age, Virginie Moreau believes they are delivering the sufficient intensity to join the Moreau-Naudet 1er cru lineup. So do we! High on the hill, this is one of the last Moreau-Naudet vineyards to be picked. The wines we have tasted thus far have all shared excellent tension, and floral and pithy citrus notes that course through the palate. There is also a more savoury, spicy edge to the fruit. Salinity is a given. Raised in tank only.

Reviews

“Once again vinified entirely in tank, the 2024 Chablis 1er Cru Beauregard unfurls in the glass with notes of white flowers, nashi pear, grapefruit and lime peel. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, racy and vibrant, concluding with a sapid, moderately persistent finish.”
89-91 points, Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate
“Opens with aromas of ripe mirabelle plum, peach and apricot. While it does not have the same mineral character as some of the wines in this cellar, the lush feel on the palate and silky sweetness of the fruit are enough to recommend it. The grapes are from 0.6ha on a curving slope that concentrates the sunlight; in 2024 the site produced a respectable 20 hl/ha and a delicious wine.”
