2019 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros, William Fèvre

2019 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros, William Fèvre

William Fèvre owns half of this grand cru, so it’s no wonder theirs is the best example you will find. The deeper clay soils make a wonderfully early drinking style, with all the power and finesse you would expect from a grand cru. Ripe, lush, approachable, and very temptingly priced for a wine of this level.

Tasting notes

A ripe and beautifully layered nose consists of notes of green fruit, citrus, iodine and mineral reduction. The powerful, rich and voluminous big-bodied flavors possess fine mid-palate density that coats the palate with sap before concluding in an austere, long and vaguely rustic finale. This is an imposing Bougros that should age effortlessly over the next decade plus.
