Fevre William Chablis Les Clos(2002)
The Fevre family has been an integral part of the Chablis landscape for upwards of 250 years. Since the beginning, though, they have been adamant about protecting and promoting the typicity of Chablis, whose whites draw a unique and well-defined line-in-the-sand when it comes to mineral-laden and driven French Chardonnay.

Stunningly focused and detailed and this wine has it all with power, muscle, sap, style, complexity, typicity, concentration, depth and a palpable sense of minerality as the flavors seem as though they're cut from liquid stone. The finish left me dumbfounded as I didn't think it was possible for this to be longer than the Bouguerots. A great, great Les Clos that is worth read more...
