Chablis Les Preuses William Fevre 2008

HED20224 / 75cl 13%
Domaine William Fevre Chablis Les Clos 2005 is a full-bodied white wine from the Grand Cru climat of Les Clos in the Chablis region of Burgundy. Established in 1959, William Fèvre has emerged as a significant landowner in Chablis, boasting holdings in six out of the seven Grand Cru appellations. Committed to limiting yields, the estate has embraced organic cultivation methods since 2000. “The 2008 Fevre Chablis Preuses presents a complex nose of marine, smoky, and mineral notes, with fresh lime, apricot, and cherry distillate. The palate is defined by a firm, austere texture and a balance of bitterness from apricot kernel and plum pit, giving it restraint. The wine’s impressive density is complemented by a late burst of citrus and pit fruit, along with a sustained finish marked by piquant and saline minerality. This wine will benefit from a few years of ageing, with a potential for at least a decade of high performance.” 94 point, David Schildknecht, The Wine Advocate

Domaine William Fevre

Domaine William Fevre

Domaine William Fèvre, located in the prestigious Chablis region of Burgundy, has a legacy spanning over 250 years. Established in 1959, William Fèvre is one of the biggest landowners in Chablis, with just under 80 hectares of vineyards. Of these, 15.9 hectares are classified as Premier Cru, and 15.2 hectares as Grand Cru. The domaine boasts holdings in six out of the seven Grand Crus, with Les Clos as the flagship, producing profound white wine Chardonnay with great structure, mineral depth, and ageability.

The Fèvre family, led by the eponymous William Fèvre, established a reputation for fine wine production. The estate was sold to the Champagne house Joseph Henriot in 1998, but the legacy of the Fèvre family continues under the guidance of former Bouchard cellar master Didier Séguier. Under his management, William Fèvre has become a benchmark for terroir-focused Chablis, continuing the tradition started by William Fèvre's father.

Since 2000, the domaine has expanded its vineyard holdings while intensifying its commitment to sustainable farming practices. The estate has also embraced organic cultivation methods, with the entire 78 hectares estate becoming organic-certified in 2023. Careful oak management is central to William Fèvre’s terroir-driven style: Premier Cru wines are vinified in 40-50% French oak barrels; Grand Crus in 70-80%, without new wood.
