Domaine William Fèvre
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.
Description
The 2020 Chablis by Domaine William Fèvre presents a fleshy and elegant bouquet with aromas of citrus, white fruits, and flowers. On the palate, the wine is fresh and supple, underpinned by characteristic Chablis minerality, offering a clean and crisp finish with hints of saline.
Food Pairing
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.
