Chablis Grand Cru Bougros "Côte Bouguerots" – Domaine
Chablis Grand Cru
The Côtes Bouguerots is a particularly steep parcel of the Grand Cru Bougros boasting the steepest slope in Chablis, with a gradient approaching 45 degrees. Mostly planted in the 1950s and ‘60s, its shallow soils naturally restrict yields, making for a more complex wine. Some time on the lees in old French oak barrels makes for powerful wine, densely structured and with some roundness.

Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses - Domaine
Chablis Grand Cru
From Fèvre’s holdings towards the top of Les Preuses, this wine has excellent aging potential due to the soils, dense clay over limestone. A light touch in the cellar and a measured use of old French oak allow the quality of the vineyard to shine through in this round, yet elegant and intensely mineral wine.

Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir - Domaine
Chablis Grand Cru
Fèvre farms two south-facing parcels on the north hillside of Vaudésir totalling 1.20 hectares in the heart of the Côte des Grands Crus. The steep slopes of this cru contain more clay than limestone, making an elegant, finessed wine. Vaudésir’s blend of softness and liveliness is unique among the Grands Crus, making it particularly charming when young.

Chablis Grand Cru Valmur - Domaine
Chablis Grand Cru
The cru Valmur resembles a little valley, with two hillsides on either side of the Sainte Vaubourg fountain path. Fèvre’s parcel climbs the length of the vineyard on the western hillside, exposed south/southeast. Its deep clay and limestone soils tend to produce fruity and powerful wines still with the Chablisien minerality.

Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent - Domaine
Chablis 1er Cru
Vaulorent wraps around the opposite face of the hillside on which Les Preuses and Bougros sit. Fèvre’s holdings are on the eastern side of the vineyard, as close as one can get to the Grands Crus without crossing over. The soils resemble their storied neighbors and grow similarly powerful wines, perhaps with a shade more freshness.

Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre - Domaine
Chablis 1er Cru
The Montée de Tonnèrre wraps around the hillside immediately east of the Côte des Grands Crus. Its geological profile closely resembles the Grands Crus and as such is considered one of the finest Premiers Crus. Fèvre’s holdings are in three lieux-dits on the crest of the hill with exposures ranging from southwest to south to southeast. Both full and rich while holding onto mineral and floral characters, the wine shows intensity and complexity in its youth, and will develop subtlety as it ages.

Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy - Domaine
Chablis 1er Cru
Beauroy is a cru sensitive to late frosts. So sensitive, in fact, growers created the artificial Etang de Beine at the foot of its hill both to influence its microclimate and as a water source for aspersion. Fèvre owns 1.12 hectares in the subclimat of Les Troësmes, where the steep slopes and thin clay-limestone soils give finesse and elegance to the wine while the sunny south-southeastern exposures provide a background of richness.

Saint-Bris
Chablis
Located southwest of Chablis, Saint-Bris is the only appellation in Burgundy that allows Sauvignon Blanc. This wine grows from northeast- and northwest-facing parcels with a mix of stones, hard limestone and clay-silt. A 12-hour pre-fermentation maceration adds to this wine’s freshness, a linearity solidified by its all-stainless-steel aging.
