Stéphane Moreau used to call Forêts “...one of the greatest terroirs of Chablis.” It’s a historical sub-plot within the 1er Cru Montmains, located high up the slope and facing southeast. It can certainly produce Chablis of the highest order, as both Dauvissat and Moreau have shown many times (Raveneau also has a small parcel). Moreau farms two plots of vines here, with a total area of just under two hectares. The first plot is alongside the vineyard of Vincent Dauvissat, and the vines are the same age at approximately 60 years. The second (with 25-year-old vines) sits next to the Raveneau parcel.

Reviews

“This precise, focused wine sees no new oak, allowing the terroir from these two parcels of Forêts to shine through. The layered palate has a slightly tugging texture that tingles from the start and through the persistent finish. Tasting of apple core and star fruit, some oyster shell tones sneak in on the back palate.”
94 points, Christy Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin Burgundy 2020 Special Report
“The Forêts has luminous purity, married with elegance which opens up and rest on an expansive back palate finishing up on moreish bitterness.”
93 points, La Revue du Vin de France
“That’s the best nose so far, fresh, forward, mineral – complete! Mouth-filling wine, a small grain to this texture. Growing larger over the palate – some nice, lip-smacking, bitters again. The most complete wine yet! Bravo!”
