Description
Domaine William Fevre Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2018
Elevate your Burgundy collection with this iconic Chablis Grand Cru Valmur from Domaine William Fevre—a masterpiece of precision and power from Chablis’ most revered terroir. Crafted from south-facing parcels in Chablis’ highest Grand Cru vineyards, this 2018 vintage embodies Burgundy’s timeless elegance with a bold structure that demands attention now and will reward patient cellaring for decades to come.
A Terroir-Defined Experience
Planted on chalky Kimmeridgian soils bathed in sunlight from elevated slopes, this wine captures Chablis’ signature mineral intensity with remarkable clarity. Winemaker William Fevre’s meticulous approach balances 40% new oak seamlessly into its taut frame, enhancing its complexity without overshadowing its purity—a hallmark of Domaine Fevre’s artistry.
Tasting Notes: Precision Meets Power
Expect a symphony of aromas: ripe pear and citrus oil give way to beeswax and ocean spray nuanceshints of chalky soil evoke Chablis’ terroir with every sip. On the palate, vibrant acidity cuts through a full-bodied core of layered fruit and saline minerality—a testament to its grand cru pedigree. While approachable now, this wine’s dense structure suggests peak enjoyment between 2025-2035 for those willing to wait.
Pairing & Serving
Perfect with oysters Rockefeller or butter-poached lobster—this wine’s mineral backbone shines brightest with seafood or rich poultry dishes. Serve slightly chilled (50-54°F) after decanting for at least 30 minutes to unlock its full complexity.
Why It Stands Out
With unanimous 95-point ratings from Decanter, James Suckling, and Wine Advocate—this wine defines Burgundy’s pinnacle of quality. A must-have for connoisseurs seeking both immediate pleasure and long-term investment potential—its rare blend of power and precision makes it a cornerstone of any serious collection.
