Lunch at Le Bistrot des Grand Crus, Chablis

Tasted January 11, 2019 by HowardNZ with 79 views

Introduction

A good meal of Foie Gras and a Trout main accompanied by:

Flight 1 (1 note)

White
2015 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Overall, a disappointing Les Clos, quite a way inferior to the 2014 La Chablisienne Les Clos. Pale gold. An attractive nose of gentle spices, pears and lemons, with a slightly off-putting creamy, lactic element. This element was reduced on the second pour. Not a lot of Chablis typicity on palate … in fact, before the food, I was not at all impressed. It seemed overly broad and lacking in focus, minerality and acid cut. The second pour was again better on palate and the acidity seemed to improve when matched with the fat in the Foie Gras. It also paired reasonably well with the trout. Only, in my view, an average Grand Cru Chablis.
