2019 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir, William Fèvre

2019 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir, William Fèvre

Bright and zippy, this is the freshest and zingiest of the Fèvre grands crus. The amphitheatre-like shape of the vineyard is a sun trap, and as a result this is always one of the first picked sites. In 2019 it has richness and a full, aromatically expressive minerality, with a green apple edge on the palate. They picked at just the right moment.

Tasting notes

A riper and mildly exotic nose is still appealingly elegant while offering equally good Chablis character. The pure, refined and almost painfully intense middle weight flavors are much fine if at the expense of power on the almost pungently mineral-driven finish that is shaped by grapefruit-tinged acidity. This excellent, bone dry and chiseled effort should also age effortlessly and is a wine that's going to need it.
