Wines from Chablis
William Fèvre 2006 Les Clos Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- $90
What makes a great Chablis grand cru? It’s the intensity of flavor, which can be found in this wine. Its green and white fruits are layered with wood spice and an ineffable crispness that allows the wine to show the purity of Chardonnay and the great terroir at the same time.

Albert Bichot 2007 Domaine Long-Depaquit Moutonne Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- Cellar Selection
The flagship wine from Bichot’s Long-Depaquit estate is, as usual, impressive. It has richness, balance, full white fruits with just a hint of steeliness. Powered by a citrus acidity, it looks likely to age well over several years.

William Fèvre 2007 Les Preuses Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- Cellar Selection
- $95
A bright, steely wine with great concentration and a tight, mineral character. This is impressive Grand Cru Chablis for the long term, based for the moment on lime, almonds and green plums, but itching to broaden out.

William Fèvre 2007 Cote Bouguerots Bougros Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- $80
A ripe, bold and impressive wine, showing yellow peaches and pineapple flavors to go with its tight core of minerality. There is a touch of wood, but the main thrust is for broad fruit, open and welcoming.

Domaine Christian Moreau Père et Fils 2007 Clos des Hospices Dans Les Clos Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- $110
From a parcel that used to belong to the Hospices in Chablis until purchased by the Moreau family. It is a beautifully fashioned wine, its steely character rounded out with delicious ripe fruits, green apples, pear skin and kiwi fruit. Impressive and for aging.

William Fèvre 2008 Les Preuses Grand Cru Chardonnay (Chablis)
- Online Exclusive
- $74
In the tight mineral side of Chablis, a wine with a terrific density of texture. The flavors are in the lemon grass, citrus line, a pure shaft of steel going through the fruit. Taut, tense, very vivid.
