2018 Chablis Village

The Domaine William Fvre, the largest owner of Grands Crus in Chablis.1959 marked the first harvest of William Fvre, owner of the domain of the same name until 1998 as it was acquired by Henriot group.
Head winemaker of Domaine William Fevre, Didier Sguier, worked as assistant winemaker at Bouchard Pre & Fils, so he already had experience under his belt, steering what was then a very oaky style of Chablis to one that was much more terroir driven and for want of a better word, just more “Chablis.”

Appellation:
Chablis, Burgundy

Country of Origin:
Burgundy, France

Type:
White/Blanc (Still)

Grape variety:
Chardonnay 100%

Vinification:
Manual harvest.Very light static settling of the juice to preserve enough fine lees so that the alcoholic and malolacticfermentations can occur naturally.Maturation for 8 to 10 months in stainless steel vats to preserve freshness.

Tasting Notes:
The 2018 Chablis Village has an attractive bouquet of gently unfolding green apple and crushed limestone scents. The palate is fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity, and quite critic toward the finish, which shows good persistence for a Village Cru.

Food Pairing:
Fish dishes, grilled or in a light sauce; various seafood, oysters and sushi.
