The 2023 Benoit Moreau Bourgogne Blanc is a beautifully precise and mineral-driven Chardonnay from one of Burgundy’s rising talents in Chassagne-Montrachet. Produced from carefully selected vineyards across the Côte de Beaune, the wine reflects Benoît Moreau’s restrained winemaking style, favouring freshness, purity and subtle texture over overt oak influence. The nose reveals lemon zest, green apple and white peach layered alongside white flowers, wet stone and delicate hazelnut notes, giving the wine impressive lift and clarity.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with vibrant natural acidity, fine textural depth and a tightly focused mineral core. Layers of citrus and orchard fruit are balanced by gentle lees complexity and saline freshness, finishing crisp, energetic and beautifully detailed with excellent balance and precision.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2023 Benoit Moreau Bourgogne Blanc is a superb modern Burgundy Chardonnay - fresh, mineral and beautifully refined with excellent purity and drinkability. Perfect with oysters, grilled seafood, roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes or soft goat’s cheese. Enjoy now through 2032+.
