2022 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains, Domaine William Fèvre

2022 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains, Domaine William Fèvre

Montmains is a cool site, and often picked later than most premiers crus. It’s a large site with various sub-zones worth of note. The Fevre example is equal parts Montmains, Forets, and Butteaux. In 2022 it is ripe, with a salinity that gives it a beautiful chalky freshness.

Tasting notes

Clear lemon and lime colour. Just a very light coquillage reduction. Then the wine builds a beautiful level of intensity on the palate, a lime thread, very salivating for its dry finish. An impeccable balance, this is faultless. And so persistent! Nothing heavy, nothing over sunny.
