  Still very youthful and needs at least 5 years, for my palate. After being open for a day and then a decant, lemon/lime on the nose and following through on the palate. Still has so much development in it and with a diam closure, will go for many years

  Evolved since the last one I had in 2022: citrus, iodine, some apple. The acidity is well integrated and much less pungent. Nice density and length. Pnp, drank it over 2 hours, good from the start. Maybe a quick passage into a carafe (2h?) could be beneficial.

  From magnum. Medium yellow color. Tasted fairly mature but not over the hill. Good roundness and acidity.
  
  This was actually one of the few DIAM era Fevre wines I’ve had that showed some evolution. Not necessarily a bad thing though!

  Amazing mix of a smooth fruity Chablis with a ton of subtle complexity. Great wine!

  Cela faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas pris un Fèvre dans la cave, sans doute à cause d'une série apocalyptique de 2008 complètement oxydées...
  
  C'est parti pour ce Côte Bouguerots 12, qui est issu d'une partie très pentue du grand cru Bougros.
  
  Belle couleur paille à peine teintée par l'évolution, voilà qui rassure. Direction la carafe pour 2h pour faire disparaître une pointe de réduction.
  
  Belle aromatique typique chablisienne, avec une pointe d'évolution florale, très légèrement miellée.
  Bouche dense, fuselée tout en tension mais sans agressivité.
  Très belle finale saline, impactante.
  
  Un régal à table, ça va être difficile de ne pas enchaîner sur les autres !
