Flight 1 (1 Note)

  • 2008 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 82 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis

    Light fragrance, mineral and delicate fruit (lime).
    Luscious fruit, plenty of acidity, a touch of complexity, very refreshing and drinking well.

Flight 2 (1 Note)

  • 2008 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 87 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis

    A hint of vegetal development, with mineral and fruit aromas.
    A moderately sweet attack, not too much acidity but balanced, mineral giving a slightly bitter edge, refreshing.

  • 2006 Jean-Marc Brocard Chablis Vieilles Vignes 82 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis

    THIS WINE NEEDS DECANTING
    Some annoying sulphur on the nose, which finally left a pleasant aroma.
    Lovely fruity attack, slight creaminess, good balance, quite intense, cries out for food, the sulphur comes out in the finish.

  • 2006 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 68 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru

    This was a defective bottle but initially had a great nose, delicate lime with strong mineral notes.
    But then the taste - so disappointing, horribly musty.
    What was interesting here was that the nose didn't betray that the bottle was "off" until some time later when the mustiness became evident there too.

  • 2005 Jean-Marc Brocard Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent 87 Points

    France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru

    Very sweet nose, sweet vegetables (carrots maybe) and some ripe fruit.
    Fruity, good minerality, the grip of a bitter mineral finish, maybe not the taste you expect of Chablis.
