The wine
An elegant Grand Cru with wonderful purity. The charming bouquet offers surprising fruitiness and lovely minerality, leading to an elegant yet rounded palate with a touch of crystallised ginger dancing across it. Long and persistent. Valmur sits at the heart of the Grand Cru slope.

William Fèvre
View all William Fèvre winesWith 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.
