William Fèvre Vaudèsir Chablis Grand Cru 2019
From two separate parcels of vines, the larger of which is in the heart of the "amphitheatre" from which the finest examples of Vaudésir originate.
A riper and mildly exotic if the very, very restrained nose is still appealingly elegant while offering equally good Chablis character. The pure, refined and almost painfully intense middle-weight flavours are much fine if at the expense of power on the almost pungently mineral-driven finish that is shaped by grapefruit-tinged acidity. While in need of better depth, this bone-dry and chiselled effort should also age effortlessly while it develops it.

Farm reared chicken with morel sauce.
Fresh, refined aromas of flowers and fruit. On the palate, it is distinguished by particular subtlety: a delicious blend of softness and liveliness. Round and airy, it is very charming from its first youth.
