On the nose this Chardonnay offers up aromas of ripe pear and white nectarine, while elderflower and vanilla pod nuances are also evident. A nice, ripe, flavoursome palate, quite full and fresh, with low acidity it displays the ripeness of the vintage with a toffee twist on the finish. William Fevre sold his business and leased his vineyards to Joseph Henriot in 1998 in order to 'retire' to Chile. The Fevre Domaine is now under the day-to-day care of Didier Seguier, a young oenologist with all the right instincts and a sure touch in vineyard management and vinification. His sole objective is to produce the very best quality Chablis possible. As at Bouchard Pere et Fils in 1995 Joseph Henriot is preserving the best of the old, while introducing the new only when there is the most positive effect upon quality. As a result the grapes are hand picked into 15kg mini crates to ensure that no grapes are damaged on the way to the winery which could prejudice the eventual quality of the wine. Yields continue to be kept low and the tradition of using oak casks for fermentation and ageing of the top wines is maintained, but always with a light touch, while it is deemed fundamental that the character of the wine and terroir must shine through in any tasting. The domaine extends over 50 hectares, of which 17 are in six of the seven Grand Crus classification regions. These precious Grand Cru vineyards gives the fevre estate a unique opportunity to demonstrate the essential differences between Chablis greatest vineyards, as each clearly expresses the character of its particular terroir.
