Alex and Martine Moreau, who run this fabulous estate, have been friends of the company pretty much since day one, having been kind enough to grant us an allocation back in 2007. Since then, they have become more than just suppliers and, at the risk of being patronising, it’s been wonderful watching their domaine become one of the most revered in Burgundy.
It’s been a challenging couple of years for them with the splitting up of the domaine and then the devastating frost of spring 2021 which played havoc with yields in the Côte de Beaune. But they bounded back with a fantastic set of wines in both 2022 and 2023.
The Domaine dates all the way back to 1809, when a certain Auguste Moreau, Alex’s great, great grandfather, bought and farmed some vineyards in the village. Several generations passed until Marcel Moreau really began to crank things up and expanded the domaine quite significantly either side of the Second World War. If only vineyards were the same price today! His son and Alex’s father, Bernard, then took over in the 1960s and continued to evolve the domaine until passing the pipette on to Alex at the beginning of the new Millennium.
From the 2021 vintage all the wines have been labelled Alex Moreau, having previously been under the header of Bernard. It heralds a new chapter in the history of the estate. Alex previously had 15 hectares but contracts having come to an end, he now farms only 5, but seems quite content. It will be great if over the next few years Alex can build back his holdings so there will be plenty more of his excellent wines to satiate relentless global demand.
