Tasting notes

A complex and expressive bouquet, with notes of white flowers, citrus fruits (like lemon and grapefruit), and green apple. Subtle hints of flinty minerality, characteristic of Chablis, are present alongside a touch of wet stone and chalkiness. The palate is elegant and balanced, with fresh acidity that gives the wine a crisp and clean finish. The citrus fruit flavours are complemented by the mineral-driven notes, offering a harmonious expression of the terroir. The wine has a medium to full body, with a slight creaminess that comes from the aging process, adding depth and complexity. The finish is long and precise, with lingering flavours of citrus, apple, and a pronounced minerality that is characteristic of the Fourchaume vineyard.

About this wine

William Fèvre is a renowned producer of Chablis wines, and their Fourchaume 1er Cru is a true gem in their collection. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Fourchaume vineyard, which is located on the right bank of the Serein river in the heart of the Chablis appellation.

The taste profile of this wine is truly exceptional. On the nose, you'll find aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and a hint of minerality. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, with a perfect balance of acidity and fruitiness. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that will linger on your palate.

The history of William Fèvre dates back to 1959, when the eponymous founder purchased his first vineyard in Chablis. Since then, the estate has grown to encompass over 78 hectares of vineyards, all of which are located in the best terroirs of the Chablis appellation. Today, the estate is run by the fourth generation of the Fèvre family, who continue to produce exceptional wines that showcase the unique character of the Chablis terroir.
