Light golden in color. The nose has minerals, smoke, slight gun powder and plenty of peachces. On the palate, there is a sour lemon quality that is very nice. Clean with lots of energy. This is a round wine but the energy replaces some of the acidity. Nice finish. Drinking well now, it should last for anothr five to seven years.
Medium golden in color. The nose has green apples with a slight chalkiness. On the palate, there is a slight gun powder note with tart lemons. Plush texture. Slightly yeasty. Is this barrel fermented? An interesting take on Chablis that I very much enjoyed. Seemed to be love or hate it at the table. It does seem a bit advanced for its age. If this bottle was representative, it probably should be consumed in the next five years.
Light green/gold in color. The nose is tight at first. It turns dusty with some lemon. With more air a bit of gun powder shows up. Better on the palate. This is oily with a round texture. Nice minerality. Good finish. Those I tasted with liked this relative to the other wines, more than I. It is not as crisp as the other Chablis and drinks more like it was from Cote de Beaune (which might not be a bad thing). This might get a bit better but I wouldn't count on it. That said, it should easily last a decade. I will be great with shellfish and other seafood.
Silvery/green/gold in color. The nose has gun powder, slight lemons on a medium intensity nose. On the palate, this has a slick texture. Chalk and minerals with slight green apple flavors. Good acidity. Nice finish. Drinking well now and a bit leaner (in a good way) than many of the 2015's. It should be good drinking for at least the next decade. It should go well with seafood and lighter salads.
Green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose has green apples, slight peach with a bit of gun powder. Medium bodied. Good balance. On the palate, green apples with some minerality. Good finish. This is drinking well now and should continue for the next five to eight years. It is nice on its own and also very food friendly. It would go nicely with smoked Salmon.
Fevre is possibly the best Chablis producer that is still (almost) affordable, so it was great to try this 1er Cru. Yellow/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is tight but opened with a bit of air to show hay, green apples, slight wax and slight chalk. Medium to full bodied. Crisp acidity. On the palate, green apples, limes and slight peach with a bit of gun powder. Long finish. Still on the young side, this should drink well for the next eight to twelve years. It is nice on its own and would be perfect with oysters.
