The wine

Poised and elegant, with an aromatic bouquet of green apple, flint and subtle citrus. The palate blends power and finesse, revealing the persistent minerality characteristic of Fourchaume with real aplomb. The right bank's most celebrated Premier Cru.

The producer

With a history spanning more than 250 years, Domaine William Fèvre holds the largest collection of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards in Chablis: some 78 hectares, including parcels in all seven Grands Crus.

William Fèvre himself came from a long line of Chablis growers and took the reins in 1959, expanding the estate through shrewd acquisition and building a formidable reputation. He retired in 1998, and the domaine is now owned by Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite, with Didier Seguier at the helm since that handover.

Seguier stripped back the oak, championed sustainability and let the limestone speak. The wines today are among the most precise expressions of Chablis made by anyone: taut, saline and utterly transparent to their terroir. The negociant Petit Chablis and Chablis carry the William Fèvre name; everything from the village Chablis upwards is Domaine fruit.
