Chablis

This wine pairs beautifully with fish dishes, especially grilled or served with a light sauce, as well as a variety of seafood including oysters and sushi​.

The grapes for this wine are sourced from the domaine’s vineyards in Chablis, planted on Kimmeridgian limestone and clay soils, which are renowned for producing high-quality Chardonnay. The vineyards benefit from ideal exposure and are around 50 years old​.

The 2020 Chablis is aged for 8 to 10 months in stainless steel vats, ensuring that the wine retains its freshness and vibrant character​.

The wine undergoes a gentle pneumatic pressing followed by fermentation in stainless steel to preserve the purity of fruit. The juice is lightly settled to conserve fine lees. No oak is used during maturation to maintain the fresh and mineral-driven style​.

The name William Fèvre has become synonymous with Chablis and today is arguably one of its greatest domaines. From humble beginnings in 1957 with a mere 7 hectares, William Fèvre soon procured some of the best premiers and grands crus in Chablis. Following Fèvre’s retirement in 1998, the domaine was purchased by the Champagne house, Joseph Henriot, but retained its original name. The talented Didier Séguier is the cellar master, an alumnus of the well-known Beaune domaine, Bouchard Père et Fils. All of Fèvre’s vineyards are harvested by hand which is quite a task given that this includes 12 hectares of premiers crus and no less than 16 hectares of grands crus.
