William Fevre Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent 2012

There is a discreet touch of wood that sets off similar aromas to those of the Montée de Tonnerre. The lemony and patently concentrated flavors exude both a fine minerality and plenty of palate coating dry extract before culminating in a bone dry and hugely persistent finish. This is a distinctly saline wine that, along with the Preuses and Côte Bouguerots, I buy almost every year and thus know extremely well. One of the things that struck me about the 2012 version is just how powerful it is and it is not only built to age but will definitely need at least 5 to 7 and 10 would be better. 93pts Outstanding Drink 2022+ BURGHOUND
