Owned by Maisons et Domaines Henriot since 1998, William Fèvre is one of the most prestigious wine producers in Chablis, with the largest array of premier and grands cru vineyards in Chablis. This release is their 2020 Mont de Milieu, a premier cru marked by chalky clay, marl and marly limestone from the Kimmeridgian era. Expect an expression with intense mineral character, with a remarkable length and delicacy.

The 2020 Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru's nose lacks complexity and mineralité, which is perhaps made more evident by its juxtaposition in this blind peer group flight. The palate is balanced, but it is missing a little harmony and mineralité. There are touches of sour lemon and orange rind, but the finish is a little brief. It's an odd showing, given how it tasted from barrel. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. Neal Martin9th July 2024

Domaine William Fevre

Chablis with exceptional terroir focus

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.
