William Fevre Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru 2007

Professional Ratings

• 96 Wine Enthusiast
  From the largest of the Chablis Grand Cru, this wine shows a lively fruit character but also a powerful, taut mineral streak that comes through to dominate. There is no doubt this needs aging, with its steely edge and vivid acidity.

  The Fevre 2007 Chablis Les Clos perpetuates this collection’s theme of improbably mineral-like scents and tastes, emphasizing the pungent iodine aspect of crustaceans and sheer crushed stone. For all of its implacable underlying density – at sea level, as it were – this displays succulence along with a more dynamic exchange of citrus, spice, and mineral than in most exemplars of this great site in this vintage. There is a certain severity to the almost indelible, memorable meld of iodine, chalk, spice, and citrus oil that constitute this wine’s finish, but it needs several years in bottle and should be worth following for at least a decade thereafter.

  This is both rich and elegant, with floral, lemon cake, apple and mineral aromas and flavors. Balanced and classy, with a long, mouthwatering aftertaste. Best from 2012 through 2022. 200 cases imported.
