The 2016 Chablis (Domaine) comes from 48 hectares belonging to William Fevre and was cropped at just 18 hectoliters per hectare. It has a compact bouquet with scents of cold stone but is very tight and needs more fruit expression. The palate is well balanced with a fine seam of acidity and is quite saline in the mouth with a precise finish. At the moment the palate shows more potential than the aromatics but I suspect this will come good with a year in bottle.

A ripe and fresh nose offers up notes of iodine, oyster shell, mineral reduction, pear and plenty of citrus influence. There is fine density to the concentrated and sappy flavors that possess fine volume while delivering very good length and solid depth. Good stuff and worth a look.
