Domaine William Fevre Petit Chablis 2014 (France)

Description

Petit Chablis is a perfect introduction to the world of Chablis’ fine wines. Its Portlandian subsoil differs somewhat from other AOCs in the region. However, it still evokes Chablis characteristics with lovely freshness on the palate.

Bouquet marked by great freshness. Fruity, floral and mineral notes. A light and lively wine.

Use of the principle of gravity so as to avoid all pumping, which could harm the quality of the wine. Brief (1½-2 hours) pneumatic pressing to obtain a gentle separation of the solid and liquid of the grape. Very light static settling of the juice to preserve enough fine lees so that the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations can occur naturally. MATURING 8-10 months, in small stainless steel vats to preserve freshness.

7.5 hectares, situated above the Grands Crus with southwest exposure.
