Description

Petit Chablis William Fevre 2017

Chardonnay

Bourgogne

Chablis covers around 5000 Has of vines, it is the northern most burgundy zone and, as such, one of the coolest and vineyards are not reaching the 300 meters above sea level. The Chablis zone is divided, almost in half by the Serein River. And all the grands Cru are together and are located on the northern part of the river and are roughly looking south. Generally speaking the Premiers Cru and Grands Cru are located on slopes and petit Chablis on flatter land. “Kimmeridgean soils are usually for top vineyards, and portlandian soils which are also chalk, but with higher content of clay hence not as warm are for Petit Chablis.

Nonetheless, Petit Chablis often offer tremendous value! and they are much more drinkable in their youth.

William Fevre has always been fairly popular here in Andorra, it is not acidic, but light bodied, dry and very well made.
