2002 Chablis, William Fevre
Appearance: light green gold.
Nose: rich, ripe lemon fruit, minerals, and (often not mentioned on Chablis) very grapey, no oak.
Palate: both rich and lean, high integrated acidity, medium cool alcohol, more lemons but also minerality, good length.
Conclusion: 2002 was a great year in Chablis (better even than 2001) and William Fevre’s village Chablis shows this in abundance (and is capable of ageing for a little while). However, it is certainly drinking now. Fantastic unoaked Chardonnay.
Rating: 17.5/20 [could be higher]
