... And it is really serious. Hooray! This is made from a plot of vines by the Grand Cru les Preuses.
Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume "Vignoble de Vaulorent" 2005, Domaine William FevreWow, the nose of this is simply beautiful: elderflower, freshly-squeezed ripe lemon juice and an utterly wonderful nutty, creamy minerality. There is a real concentration of aromas here. The palate is not short of beauty, either. It has a floral fruitiness, the concentration of a serious Grand Cru, perfectly balanced acidity and one arse of a long, mineral finish. For all the power and density of flavours this remains supremely elegant and extremely refined. I cannot remember having better Chablis than this.
