William Fevre Chablis Montee de Tonnerre 1er 2023
DOZEN: $2,244.00 or $187.00 each
The 2023 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru is a step up from the slightly underwhelming 2022 last year. Fine delineation, citrus-fresh with petrichor and a touch of peach skin. The palate is well balanced, and quite powerful though well focused. A keen line of acidity with more sapidity on the finish compared to the Vaillons. Persistent spiciness on the aftertaste. Recommended. NEAL MARTIN
OUTSTANDING - There is reasonably good typicity present on the more floral aromas of poached pear, lemon zest and shellfish-scented nose. There is again fine volume and mid-palate density to the delicious and vibrant medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a dry but not really austere finale. This beautifully balanced and surprisingly powerful effort could use better depth so at least a few years of cellaring should be beneficial. In short, this is lovely and promising. BURGHOUND
WORTH A SPECIAL SEARCH - A finer nose - less impact but with more flashes of complexity. Lovely in the mouth - a juicy complexity with really a lot of different citrus aspects - the skin too - and a modest but present salinity. His mineral finish vibrates with interest - that's a great wine - and for the longest time it's growing in the finish rather than fading. That has great potential… BILL NANSON, Burgundy Report
