From Bourgogne to Premier Cru, these wines take you straight to the heart of Cote d'Or with quality and authenticity.
"Already one of the best addresses in Santenay!" Bill Nanson, The Burgundy Report
"David’s wines are gaining in precision and consistency ... noticeably more refined. The fruits of good work in the vines, I suspect." - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
Why are the 2024 wines so good?
Firstly I know of no other more gifted, caring and obsessive vineyard manager / worker that David Moreau, who through experience working at the likes of Lamay and DRC and now in his own vines has become an expert viticulturalist. He always questions himself and standard convention, takes nothing for granted and carefully observes seasonal events, and the cause and effect of his practices. In this vintage he had no rain pressure, a 30% crop reduction giving extra concentration, and he managed to craft some quite assertive juicy wines. Randall.
David Moreau has made amazingly great 2024’s even with his Domaine's existing realm of perfectionism. He uses only sustainable viticulture practices and only perfectly ripe and healthy berries. He uses very little manipulation, soft but effective foot plunging and pump-overs; a little new oak, obsessive topping to keep the wines fresh and clean, little racking to keep the wines on their lees as long as possible - a very, very careful approach. He is not scared of good structure but wants to emphasise pure fruit and as much perfume as possible. His wines taste like they should come from much more famous sites! The wines of Santenay should be more famous in Australia, and like those of St. Aubin and Savigny-les-Beaune, some great Burgundian bargain buys still exist.
