From Domaine William Fèvre in Burgundy’s Chablis appellation, the Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy 2021 is a refined 100% Chardonnay from a 1.12-hectare plot across three parcels in the Beauroy Premier Cru vineyard, situated on south-facing slopes of Kimmeridgian limestone soils that impart exceptional minerality and structure. Hand-harvested grapes undergo gentle pneumatic pressing, with 40-50% fermented in stainless steel tanks and the remainder in used French oak barrels for subtle enhancement; the wine matures on fine lees for 10-15 months, blending tank and oak components to balance freshness and depth. Certified organic since 2023, this production emphasizes terroir expression and minimal intervention, yielding a pale gold wine with remarkable purity and vibrancy.
Tasting Notes An elegant, mineral-driven white with crisp citrus and subtle floral notes, reflecting Chablis's Kimmeridgian terroir. The nose displays refined lime zest, white peach, quince, and hints of wet flint and white flowers. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and poised, with vibrant acidity, fine texture, and flavors of citrus pith, green apple, and chalky minerality, leading to a long, saline finish.
Awards and Accolades The 2021 Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy earned 92 points from Vinous for its sunny bouquet, balanced weight, and flinty focus.
Serving and Cellaring Serve at 10-12°C with 30 minutes of chilling to accentuate aromas. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with oysters, goat cheese, or lightly spiced seafood. Enjoy now through 2030, during which it will develop enhanced nutty and honeyed nuances.
