The 2023 Domaine Nathalie et Gilles Fèvre Chablis is a classic, highly rated expression of the vintage that beautifully balances the warmth of 2023 with the region’s traditional precision. Sourced from northeast-facing plots on pure Kimmeridgian limestone soils, this 100% Chardonnay is fermented entirely in stainless steel and aged on fine lees for 10 months. The Fèvre family is deeply rooted in Chablis history dating back to 1745. Gilles, representing generations of grape growers, and his wife Nathalie (former head winemaker at La Chablisienne), transitioned from the local cooperative to bottling their own artisanal wines in 2003.Vinification: Hand-harvested grapes are vinified in small, temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and aged on the lees for 10 months. Tasting Profile Aroma: Expressive nose featuring soft citrus, white peach, green apple, apricot, and subtle white floral blossoms. Palate: Midweight, rounded, and juicy with a strong backbone of mouthwatering, high-toned acidity. The typical 2023 vintage warmth provides plush orchard fruit flavors like pear and peach. Finish: Clean and vibrant with a powerful streak of wet-stone, chalky minerality and a faint hint of saline oyster shell.
