Reviews 92-94 points Wine Advocate "Notes of citrus zest, crisp orchard fruit, white flowers and mint introduce Moreau's 2022 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy wine that's built around chalky structuring extract, concluding with a saline finish. (WK)" 92-95 points Burghound "Here too there is a whiff of phenolic character on the pretty and cooler nose of various white orchard fruit scents that are liberally laced with citrus and petrol nuances. The sleek, intense and markedly mineral-driven flavors terminate in a chiseled, youthfully austere and bitter lemon-inflected finale. I very much like the sense of underlying tension and this is lovely, not to mention capable of rewarding a decade plus of aging. Excellent. (AM)"

About Domaine Bernard Moreau et Fils (Alex Moreau)
Anchored by a legacy of over two centuries, Domaine Bernard Moreau (now called Domaine Alex Moreau), has grown steadily into a producer of extraordinary wines under the stewardship of the fourth-generation, Alex Moreau. For more than two decades, Alex's vineyard operations and winemaking have been characterized by an unwavering commitment to quality, integrity, and the authentic expression of Burgundy's terroir. Alexandre's philosophy of early harvesting to retain acidity and the use of neutral oak barrels for aging gives his wines a distinctive minerally, acid-driven style.
Domaine Bernard Moreau takes pride in the meticulous care of their vineyards and the handpicking of grapes, resulting in wines that reflect their origin and dedication to craftsmanship. Their Chardonnays, revered for complex and layered flavors, evoke notes of citrus, green apple, underlined by a solid core of minerality. The Pinot Noirs, carrying hints of black cherry, plum, and a dash of spice, captivate with a rich and textural mouthfeel, creating a genuine representation of the Burgundian terroirs.
The Domaine's painstaking attention to detail sets them apart from other producers. It's a fact noted by William Kelley of The Wine Advocate, who commended the Domaine as "one of the most exciting addresses in the Côte d’Or." Domaine Bernard Moreau's commitment to terroir expression, traditional winemaking, and rigorous vineyard maintenance ensures that whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or a casual drinker, you'll find an unforgettable experience in each bottle.
