Tasting notes
The 2023 Chablis Vaillon 1er Cru Cuvée Guy Moreau, which comes from 90-year-old vines, did not finish its fermentation until the following June. It is a little broader on the nose compared to the regular cuvée and this displays a touch more depth. The palate is well balanced and fresh with a bead of acidity and hints of toffee apple and white peach toward the finish. This is very fine.

Grilled peaches. This is pretty exciting. Rich. Clementine. Walnut. Whorl of fruit and flavour and almost plump in texture. Candied citrus peel and spice. Long and demanding of attention. Quite theatrical and extravagant for Chablis! (TC)
The 2023 Chablis Vaillon 1er Cru Cuvée Guy Moreau has an attractive bouquet with yellow plum, peach skin and touches of lemon curd. Quite plush but well-defined. The palate is nicely balanced with fine tension. The a-little-lower pH than the regular cuvée seems to make a difference with a bit more cut on the finish. Recommended.
