Tasting Notes

A reserved but ripe nose features white fruit and floral notes that are set off by deft touches of classic Chablis character and wood. There is both good richness and power to the concentrated, vibrant and mineral-driven medium plus weight flavors that also possess ample amounts of dry extract that confer a textured feel to the impressively intense and mouth coating finish. Sweet spot

Score: 91 - 94

The 2015 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Cote de Bourgerots has an excellent bouquet, very well defined and perhaps demonstrating the most mineralité and tension of all William Fevre's 2015s. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, quite saline in the mouth with fresh lime and green apple; it has fine tension and quite an intense finish that lingers long, thanks to the undercurrent of salinity. William Fevre's strongest player in 2015? Most probably.

Score: 93 - 95

Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2020-2040 31 August 2016

Pale, bright yellow. Knockout nose combines white peach, white pepper, lime and menthol; nothing overripe about this despite the hot year and steep south-facing site. Very rich, peachy wine with noteworthy flavor purity and lovely integrated acidity. More about fruits than minerals but nonetheless sappy and precise, with a slowly building, very long finish. (A note of leesy reduction may be blocking the wine's minerality today.) This densely packed, lightly saline grand cru spreads out to coat the entire palate. The high quality of the William Fèvre 2015 grand crus is no doubt at least partly due to early harvesting.

Score: 92 - 95
