2012 Chablis, 'Bougros Côte Bouguerots', William Fèvre

"A strikingly pungent alliance of peppermint, pennyroyal, lemon rind and chalk dust surges from the glass of Fèvre’s 2012 Chablis Bougros Cote de Bouguerots...and allies itself on a firm, bright palate with crab apple and toasted shrimp shells. Hints of noble fungus and bittersweet floral perfume emerge as the glass stands open, but the emphasis here remains on tart fruits, green herbs, and stuff that requires a mineral vocabulary to imperfectly capture. This energetic but austere cru grips with formidable, pungent, brash tenacity. Its aptitude for refreshing, invigorating and tapping the salivary glands already, thankfully, triumphs over its austerity."

Robert Parker, 93-94 points.
