*93 pts Decanter:*
Distinct shellfish notes. Plenty of volume, a fleshy sunny character on the palate, freshened by lingering salinity to finish. Top example of AP Chablis in 2022. From 40ha of vines, with three distinct plots, including one from a lovely vineyard to the east around Viviers, with vines planted in the 1960s, but all of the vines have plenty of age.
*92 pts Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, (Dec 2023)*
To bottle in November. The average age is 40 year old vines, and 10% in wood. Excellent long finish. Sources are Chablis and Chichée for half and the rest in Viviers, 50 year old vines. Well drained steep slope which though south facing is at altitude and stays fresh. A fresh lemon yellow. The nose is a little more subdued than the Petit Chablis but more classical. This too has the attractive saline bitterness of extreme youth, but the fruit builds beautifully on the palate. Drink from 2025-2030. ***** 5 star wine
*92 pts Wine Spectator:*
Bursting with peach, apple, lemon and flint aromas and flavors, this expressive and supple white is harmonious and ready to enjoy yet should develop well over the next five to seven years. Excellent length.
*91 pts Allen Meadows, Burghound:*
There is slightly better Chablis typicity present on the aromas of mineral reduction, iodine and cool white fleshed fruit. There is also slightly better volume and richness to the delicious medium weight flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension, all wrapped in a refreshing, clean, dry and sleek finale. This is very good for its level plus it should reward a few years of keeping if desired.
William Fevre Chablis具有Chablis產區非常典型的礦物香氣,口感新鮮活潑,無疑是搭配海鮮的首選,性價比超高,非常推薦!
William Fevre於1998年被寶尚父子莊收購,如今可與當地頂尖的酒莊相媲美。酒莊特級園面積佔Chablis產區特級園面積的20%,在Didier Seguier及團隊的精心管理下,葡萄酒重現其往昔的純淨透徹,充分顯示出不同地塊的本色。
《Wine Spectator》: 酒莊在葡萄種植方面格外精心與環保,全部實行手工採收,部分葡萄的酒精發酵在橡木桶中進行。更重要的是,酒莊以極大的耐心去細緻了解當地風土複雜的特質,而不是年復一年地重複所謂的“釀造秘訣”。這已近成為酒莊的價值準則。
