Wine of the Moment, J. Moreau & Fils Blanc
Beth Ribblett
Everyone is on the hunt for summer quaffing wines so we keep our Cheap & Tasty section stocked with the best values under $10 that we can find. The inventory rotates constantly as some new wine catches my eye that I think is an exceptional value, finding a slot on the shelf until its popularity runs out! Last week it was a little French white, the J. Moreau & Fils Blanc that piqued my interest and its $8.99 price tag makes it a steal of a deal for an easy summer white!J. Moreau & Fils have a 200 year history of winemaking in Chablis, but this uncomplicated little white table wine is made with grapes from the Loire Valley and southern France. A blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Folle Blanche, Ugni Blanc & Colombard, it's a refreshing, palate pleasing white that you should buy by the case to get you through the rest of the summer!
With all stainless fermentation, it’s clean yet fat with Golden Delicious Apples on the palate and some nice minerality on the finish. The perfect aperitif, great with cheeses and light fish or chicken dishes or just sitting out by the pool!
