William Fèvre is one of Chablis’ greatest wine Domaines, created by the eponymous William Fèvre between 1957 and his retirement in 1998 when he sold to the Champagne House Joseph Henriot. William Fèvre began with just 7 hectares and over time, increased this to 48 hectares, planting widely in the best of the 1ers and grand crus where the vineyards had fallen by the wayside.
Since the purchase of Joseph Henriot, the wines are now made by the talented Didier Séguier, who had previously been with the Bouchard team in Beaune. The Domaine wines include 12 hectares of premier cru vineyards and no less than 16 hectares of grand crus. The whole crop of their Domaine wines, straight Chablis included, is harvested by hand, the grand crus in small ‘cagettes’, with a sorting table back at the winery to ensure the quality of the raw material.
Combining lovely fruitiness with an attractive freshness and characteristic minerality, Chablis is a wine region with global renown. Domaine William Fèvre’s vineyards sit on Kimmeridgian subsoil and enjoy ideal exposures to produce very fine wine. 2019 will be one of the great vintages.
