Chablis 1er Cru “Montmains”

Chablis 1er Cru “Montmains”

Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys - Domaine

Chablis 1er Cru

Historically owned by French royalty, the climat of Les Lys sits towards the top of the hill in Vaillons. On the left bank of the Serein, Fèvre’s 0.99 hectares of vines grow in clay over Kimmeridgian soils, its eastern exposure producing a delicate wine with a soft, charming palate.

Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons - Domaine

Chablis 1er Cru

This left-bank cru spans a massive 104 hectares divided into 8 climats – Fèvre owns 3.65 hectares over 12 plots. One of the first vineyards to reach maturity, it shows its fast ripening in shades of peach, pineapple, and pear.

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.

Chablis Champs Royaux

Chablis

Translates to "Royal Fields", a selection from the highest quality fruit covering 37 hectares of vineyards in the Chablis appellation.

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.

Chablis 1er Cru Montmains - Domaine

Chablis 1er Cru

On the left bank of the Serein, Fèvre owns 3.68 hectares with vines in each of the climats off this Premier Cru. The parcel in Butteaux gives minerality, Forêts – fruitiness, and Montmains – richness. The vineyard has a uniquely stony terroir that grows an accessible, fresh wine in its youth that has the power and concentration to age.

Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume

Chablis 1er Cru

Fourchaum is situated on the opposite face of the hillside on which Grand Crus 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 Mont de Milieu - Domaine

Chablis 1er Cru

This cru takes its name from the "Mont de Lieu" as it was traditionally considered the delineation between Burgundy and Champagne. Because of its double exposure to the south and the southeast, it gets more sunshine than other Premiers Crus and develops aromas of candied fruit and hazelnuts with age.
