Scores

Good pale color. Reserved aromas of citrus peel and powdered stone. Rich, silky and fairly large-scaled but with a dense minerally character keeping the wine quite fresh. This boasts almost grand cru-like size and breadth. A powerful, minerally wine with a very long, rising finish that saturates the palate with dusty stone. William Fevre is the largest owner of Fourchaume, with 3.63 hectares of vines in eight parcels. The selection for this wine is based on tasting, but normally features mostly the oldest parcels. 90-93 points Stephen Tanzer

Tasting Notes

The baby Grand Cru, showing the silkiness and finesse of a top vineyard. This is a distinctive, overtly mineral wine with a lovely balance and sense of presence. Once again, this is one of the best value wines in the range. Drink 2008-2018.

ProducerDomaine William Fèvre

William Fèvre is one of Chablis's most respected domaines and is credited with putting this region of Chardonnay vines, WIlliam began purchasing parcels of the region's Premier and Grand Cru vineyards that had fallen out of fashion. He quickly grew the estate to an impressive 50 hectares and established a fine reputation for his white Burgundy. He retired in 1998 and sold the estate to négociant Bouchard, who installed Didier Séguier as winemaker. See More
