William Fevre really succeded in the 2010 vintage and the Chablis Bougros is a truly lovely Chablis. In the bouquet lovely minerality combined with white flowers, yellow fruit and fine citrus notes. On the palate powerful minerality with a very fine fruit intensity. It’s quite muscular and full-bodied. Very nicely balanced with a juicy core of ripe fruit and a very long focused finish. It’s fresh, offers good complexity and excellent concentration, A fine Chablis – quite impressive effort from Fevre.
