William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys – Domaine 2022
Chablis 1er Cru
August 13, 2026 - William Fèvre Premier Cru Les Lys is a refined expression of the Vaillons climat, drawn from a 0.99-hectare plot once owned by French royalty. Located on an eastern-facing slope with clay soils over Kimmeridgian limestone, this site yields wines of notable elegance and finesse. Gentle handling in the cellar via gravity flow, light pressing, and fermentation on fine lees preserves purity and detail. The wine ages 13 to 14 months, with partial élevage in older French oak. It offers a floral, mineral-driven bouquet, supple texture, and a graceful, lingering finish.

Cote-Rotie
August 13, 2026 - E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie Château d’Ampuis is a standout expression of the appellation and a nod to the Guigal family's legacy.

The wine is named for historic château dating back to the 11th century, restored by Marcel Guigal after he purchased it in 1995. Reviving the estate’s name, the Guigals crafted a wine that reflects both their signature style and the enduring prestige of Côte-Rôtie.
