Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume is a refined and aromatic selection from one of Chablis’ most prestigious right-bank vineyards, produced from parcels that include the highly regarded Vaulorent sub-climat. According to the producer, the wine features a very aromatic bouquet that harmoniously combines floral notes with ripe citrus fruit. On the palate, it is described as elegant and precise, balancing a "pillowy" and fleshy texture with a powerful, racy structure and significant roundness.
About Winery
Founded in 1957 by William Fèvre, a prominent figure in the region, the domaine began with 7 hectares and grew into one of Chablis's largest and most prestigious, now boasting ~78 hectares. Known for advocating for authentic, traditional Chablis, the estate was sold to Champagne Henriot in 1998, with the aim of reducing new oak to emphasize mineral, terroir-driven styles. The estate is highly regarded for its Premier Cru Beauroy, which features old vines, and has been under the leadership of Didier Séguier since 1998.
