ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
The estate of Domaine Roger & Christophe Moreux represents the best in artisanal wine making. Established in Chavignol in 1895, the work of the vineyards has been handed down from father to son for generations. Today the domaine is under the attentive care of Christophe Moreux as his father, Roger, has entered retirement. Located just a few short minutes from the town of Sancerre, Chavignol is considered one of the great sites of the appellation, and in possession of some of Sancerre’s greatest terroirs. Moreux owns vines in the two top vineyards of Chavignol: Les Monts Damnés and Les Bouffants. Both vineyards produce some of Sancerre’s top wines, Moreux’s perennially among them. The estate also produces a small amount of red and rosé wine, from Pinot Noir.
