Bloomberg wine columnist Elin McCoy featured the wines of William Fèvre after meeting with Winemaker Didier Séguier for a focused Chablis tasting and interview in New York. In her “Top Shelf” newsletter, McCoy highlights William Fèvre Vaulorent 2022 and William Fèvre Les Clos 2022 among her top six white Burgundy recommendations. The piece captures insights from their conversation on recent harvests and emphasizes why Chablis is thriving right now.
The article emphasizes Fèvre’s commitment to organic farming and noted that the domaine, with 43 hectares of premiers and grands crus, has been organic for 20 years—something Séguier says has directly improved freshness in the wines.
McCoy praises the 2022 William Fèvre Vaulorent for its grand cru-like richness, intense savory character, and minerality with “bright saltiness.” She recounted the 2022 William Fèvre Les Clos as a powerful, structured, and age-worthy grand cru, describing the vintage as “citrusy bright and fresh,” yet “layered and deep.” McCoy underscored Chablis’s rising value and appeal for investors seeking alternatives to more expensive white Burgundies.
