William Fevre Chablis 2023
DOZEN: $864.00 or $72.00 each
OUTSTANDING - Here the expressive nose is similar if perhaps just a bit more elegant and displaying a whiff of mineral reduction as well as more Chablis typicity. There is slightly better volume to the delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess unusually good power in the context of the appellation. This too should drink well after only a few years of keeping. BURGHOUND
Pale lemon yellow. An entrancing bouquet, on the sunnier side but with a mineral undercurrent. Sherbet on the palate along with citrus, good concentration, and an evenly balanced finish. JASPER MORRIS MW
48 hectares of vines with an average age of 50 years - 'more than most 1er crus' - More direct, deeper freshness, some riper fruit but this is obvious a wine of Chablis. Wider, with a fine vibrancy of aroma - super intense and detailed wine - already excellent - and you will have no worry waiting 5-10 years - you will only gain. BILL NANSON, Burgundy Report
Sourced from a mosaic of exposures and elevations and incorporating old vines planted between 1969 and 1972, the 2023 Chablis Village offers aromas of pear, white flowers and freshly baked bread. Medium- to full-bodied, ample and charming, it is underpinned by ripe yet racy acidity and concludes with a long, saline finish. Harvested earlier to preserve freshness, this is a well-executed village-level Chablis. WINE ADVOCATE
The 2023 Chablis Village comes from 50 plots over 38 hectares and cropped at 58hl/ha. Just 15% of this Village Chablis sees used barrels, only after malo. It offers apple blossom, chalk and freshly sliced pear, simple but effective. The palate is well balanced with a tang of acidity, fresh and crisp with a malic finish. Moderate length. A solid Chablis Village. NEAL MARTIN
