The William Fèvre Chablis Montmains 750ml is a premier Burgundy white wine characterized by its crisp acidity and minerality, typical of the Chablis region in France. This wine showcases notes of citrus, green apple, and flint, reflecting the unique terroir of its vineyards situated near the Serein River.
This Chablis pairs well with a variety of dishes, including seafood such as oysters, grilled fish, and shrimp, as well as poultry, creamy sauces, and goat cheese salads. Its refreshing acidity enhances the flavors of these meals, making it an excellent choice for culinary combinations.
In the hands of Fèvre winemaker Didier Séguier, premier cru Montmains has a certain initial reserve. But with time, the green apple and gooseberry notes, touched with acacia blossoms and spice, open up on the palate. The texture is lively and fresh, yet there is substance here as well. The grapes are assembled from 10 parcels throughout Montmains, including some in Forêts and Butteaux. Séguier explains that Butteaux is deep in the valley and further from the Serein so it ripens later. The grapes are fermented in tank and older casks for 40–50% of the harvest.
Sourced from a large 3.8-hectare south- and southeast-facing site, where individual parcels are harvested and vinified separately, the 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains reveals aromas of Granny Smith apple, jasmine, pear and oyster shell. Medium- to full-bodied, the palate is taut and racy, concluding with a saline finish.
