From one of Chassagne's finest premier cru vineyards, showing the chalky intensity and fine texture that Les Caillerets is known for.
Les Caillerets showcases Bernard Moreau's precise, mineral-driven style at its best — a benchmark premier cru with the tension and chalky depth to reward patient cellaring.
New to wine?
A refined introduction to premier cru white Burgundy — elegant citrus and stone-fruit character wrapped in bright, chalky minerality.
Food Pairings
Excellent alongside grilled sea bream, lobster in butter sauce, and roasted chicken with cream sauce; the wine's chalky minerality also complements aged Comté and other hard cheeses.
When to drink it
A fitting choice for celebratory dinners, milestone toasts, or a deep-dive Burgundy tasting among serious wine lovers.
Terroir & Winemaking
Hand-harvested and gently pressed, the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts and undergoes full malolactic fermentation. It is aged in French oak barrels with a modest 10-20% new oak, in line with the domaine's restrained approach across its premier cru cuvées, for approximately 12-16 months before bottling.
