Domaine William Fevre - Chablis Les Clos Domaine Grand Cru 2020

DECANTER: "Fèvre's largest grand cru, with 4ha located higher up in Les Clos, meaning this is cooler climate and with much more chalk than Kimmeridgian. 50% of the vines were planted by William Fèvre's father in the 1940s. Perfect balance between precision, concentration, acidity and ripe fruits, with oak that’s not at all apparent. A fresh, glorious wine."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is another brilliant effort from Fèvre's immensely able winemaker, Didier Seguier, and his team. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of confit citrus, fresh bread, oyster shell, orange zest and crisp orchard fruit, it's full-bodied, satiny and muscular, with a concentrated, tensile profile and a long, intensely saline finish. It's the broadest and most powerful wine in the range, while remaining quintessentially Chablisien."

JANCIS ROBINSON: "Intense nose – more so than the Preuses or Bougros. Solid concentration and obviously a long life with good acidity. A real mouthful in which the fruit just about matches the astringency but it would be shame to drink it too young…"
