2019 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Côte Bouguerots, William Fèvre

2019 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Côte Bouguerots, William Fèvre

This comes from the parcel at the bottom of the slope, by the river. Its soil always lends wines lots of saltiness and minerality, Didier says. In 2019 it has superb freshness, with a tight, green apple energy and tremendous length. Persistent and tingling, with some attractive bitterness just at the edge.

Tasting notes

This too offers a wonderfully broad range of classic Chablis elements that include mineral reduction, iodine, ocean breeze and quinine on the citrus-infused nose. The racy, detailed and beautifully textured and focused flavors deliver outstanding length on the balanced, saliva-inducing and sneaky long finish. This is also quite classy and if not quite as complete as the Preuses in 2019, it's close and with time in bottle, it may well catch its stablemate.
