MAGNUM SALE 20% DISCOUNT  - WILLIAM FEVRE CHABLIS PREMIER AND GRAND CRU 

No other domaine comes even remotely close to matching what Fèvre owns and all of it in the original heart of the appellation - it's literally the best of the best, or perhaps the phrase crème de la crème is more appropriate! BURGHOUND

William Fèvre is one of Chablis’ greatest wine domaines, developed by the eponymous William Fèvre. JASPER MORRIS MW

As I wrote last year, fresh, tensile wines that are classical in style have been the watchword at the 78-hectare Domaine William Fèvre for more than a decade. WILLIAM KELLEY, The Wine Advocate

Pure, precise, elegant – but accessible – not a bit austere. I am rarely surprised by the consistent quality from this producer and, of course, there were many great wines. In particular, there is an elegance here that is much rarer at other addresses. BILL NANSON, Burgundy Report 

The end result of ‘the Chablis difference’, for the drinker, is that there is a greater level of consistency within Chablis than elsewhere in Burgundy. Every level of Chablis offers fine-value terroir wine, mouthwatering and unique. ANDREW JEFFORD, Decanter Magazine

No need to beat around the bush with this one. 

This offer is awesome in two major ways 

Firstly, with the warmth comes parties and gatherings of all kinds. Not just Christmas and NYE but months of BBQs, family catch ups, lunches/dinners with mates, long sunny days and balmy nights where you need a great bottle of white to get through the evening. What is better than Chablis? Not much! What is better than a bottle of Chablis? That’s correct, a magnum of Chablis. Want to ramp up the standard of your wine offering this summer? Get big bottles of Chablis!

Secondly, we have access to a swag of back vintage William Fevre magnums, direct from the importers cellar. What could possibly be better than a magnum of Chablis at the party? A well aged, maturing and beautifully blossomed magnum of Chablis from one of the three top estates in the region. This offer is full of wines that are banging now, one of the joys of great Chablis is that they tend to drink well over their entire lives, but will evolve well over many years, especially out of large format.

Top that off with the 20% discount, its essentially an early Christmas gift from me to you. Though Michael and Alex may not be as thrilled with that discount as I am… and hopefully you are.

Seriously though, I think most of our customers would be aware of Fevre and aware of my thoughts on the domaine. I regard it the equal, yes, equal, top three producers in the region. The quality here is irreproachable. The prices remain sane. Their holdings are unparalleled in Chablis. They are among my favourite domaines on planet earth. There is a lot of reasons to dive in deep here. 

As always with any Fevre offer, there is the special mentions. 

So, Cote de Bouguerots. Located at the base of Bougros, the Cote de Bouguerots is on an incredibly steep incline with plenty of exposure and very shallow, poor, gravely soils sets it apart from the rest of Bougros and stamps an indelible imprint on the wines which is unmistakable and unique amongst the rest of Chablis Grand Cru. This lieu-dit is often one of the top Chablis produced in any year.

Preuses, which is harder to say, Bouguerots or Preuses? While the other Grand Cru lieux-dits are pretty well known by most Chablis nerds for some reason this guy is often overlooked. I have never understood that as it is top two, maybe three, climats for me. What this site delivers is power and density. It can be formidable in it’s youth. Often an imposing wine when young. In good vintages it can almost be too much of too many good things all at once. Again, don’t miss this wine.

PRODUCTS IN THIS OFFER

  1. William Fevre Chablis Les Clos 2019 MAGNUM
    William Fevre Chablis Les Clos 2019 MAGNUM

    DON'T MISS! - If Kimmeridgian could be distilled, it would likely smell exactly like the nose of the 2019 Les Clos with the additions of wet chalk, citrus zest and oyster shell. There is equally good delineation to the snappy, painfully intense and overtly stony large-bodied flavors that deliver superb length on the balanced finale. This elegant and classy effort is also built on a base of almost pungent minerality and a wine that is indisputably going to age effortlessly for years. BURGHOUND

    FIVE STARS - 2ha of Les Clos were planted by Maurice Fèvre between 1947 and 1952, a time when much of the hillside was bare. The 2019 yields just 25 h/ha and had recently been racked, so had not fallen clear. The bouquet is immense. Keep sniffing, and it keeps offering more. This year Les Clos has a dimension over and above all the others. Not just density, but amazing depth. A little touch of bitters too, which we like at this stage. Such great length! (97) JASPER MORRIS MW

  2. William Fevre Chablis Valmur 2020 MAGNUM
    William Fevre Chablis Valmur 2020 MAGNUM
    DON'T MISS! - Much like the Vaulorent, the nose instantly confirms with conviction that this could be from nowhere else but Chablis with its airy array of citrus rind, sea breeze, quinine and green fruit aromas. There is excellent size, weight and richness to the broad-shouldered yet sleek flavors if not nearly the same refinement on the powerful and driving finish. This even more firmly structured effort is impressive as well though with an entirely different texture. BURGHOUND
    $560.00 As low as $504.00
  3. William Fevre Chablis Montee de Tonnerre 2021 1er 1500ml
    William Fevre Chablis Montee de Tonnerre 2021 1er 1500ml

    SWEET SPOT, OUTSTANDING - A discreet dollop of wood sets off the equally cool and perhaps even slightly more elegant aromas of acacia, citrus, seashore and oyster shell. The sleek and highly sophisticated medium-bodied flavors possess a really lovely texture while delivering superb length on the bitter lemon and mineral-suffused finish. This beautifully balanced effort is crystalline in its purity and a wine that should repay a decade plus of keeping. BURGHOUND

    WORTH A SPECIAL SEARCH - A little more direct, a lot more airy. More citrus bitters again - lovely purity and minerality - beautiful intensity but without pain. A mm of cushion to this fine texture too. So perfectly packaged - This bottle could be drunk today - if it was bottled! Bravo and so sneakily long too! BILL NANSON, The Burgundy Report

    $455.00 As low as $409.50
  4. William Fevre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 2021 MAGNUM
    William Fevre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 2021 MAGNUM

    DON'T MISS! - This too could be from nowhere else other than Chablis with its combination of strong mineral reduction, cool citrus, shellfish and iodine. The dense, opulent and powerful large-bodied flavors brim with dry extract that imparts a sappy texture to the lemony and massively long finish. Not surprisingly for a classic Les Clos, this super effort is very much built-to-age and a wine that I would advise not touching for at least 6 to 8 years first. BURGHOUND

    WORTH A SPECIAL SEARCH - 4.10 ha, principally the higher section but some lower towards Grenouilles - mainly planted before 1950 by that father of Willaim Fevre. Always the only wine in this - or pretty much any line-up of great Chablis that makes me think - Chevalier-Montrachet - but this year I see Chablis! Extra breadth to this aroma - almost a hybrid of the previous two wines - but then it changes gear, floral and mega-impressive - wow - I almost don't need to drink it! Okay, for science ?? : This is not the most forceful or incisive but it has a mouth-filling fluidity that infuses the senses. (Almost) always a wine apart and it is certainly that in 2021 - undisputedly great - bravo! BILL NANSON, The Burgundy Report
