For our tasting today Wine-Searcher's
For our tasting today Wine-Searcher's Wine Director, David Allen MW, tastes a Chablis from the well-known Domaine William Fevre - a Premier Cru Chablis, Vaillons, from the 2021 vintage. this is the first of the 2021s from Fevre that he has tried and despite being as billed the rather toothsome acidity proved to be a little surprising!

Domaine William Fèvre is one of the most prestigious of all Chablis houses and, despite its relative youth, produces some of the finest expressions of Chardonnay from the north of Burgundy. The domaine's holdings cover a wide range of vineyards, including numerous Grand and Premier Cru Chablis sites. The Fèvre family has been in Chablis for 250 years, but the domaine itself wasn't established by William Fèvre until 1959. William Fèvre himself sold the eponymous business in 1998 to Maisons et Domaines Henriot (which includes Champagne house Henriot, Beaune-based Bouchard Père et Fils and Beaux Frères).
Today, Domaine William Fèvre owns large vineyard holdings within the Chablis region, 15 hectares (37 acres) of which are in Grand Cru vineyards including Les Clos, Vaudésir, Bougros and Preuses. This variety of plots gives a complete and full profile of wines – for example, those from Bougros are typically full-bodied and rounded, while those from Vaudésir are more lively, fresh and floral. A further 16 hectares (39 acres) of vineyards are classified as premier cru (these include Fourchaume/Vaulorent, Vaillons, Montmains, Montée de Tonnerre and Les Lys).
Historically, the wines were all aged in new oak, although more recently William Fère has changed to the use of barrels that are, on average, five years old, allowing for the quintessential Chablis freshness and minerality to shine through. Harvesting is all done by hand, with rigorous sorting for the premier and grand cru parcels.
Fèvre has used Diam agglomerated cork closures since 2005 to counter the issue of premature oxidation which has long been a problem in Burgundy's white wines.
