About the Wine

Nathalie and Gilles Fevre come from the prestigious Fevre family who have been stalwarts in the Chablis region since 1745. The name Fevre is synonymous with high-quality Chablis. The majority of Nathalie and Gilles vineyards are located northeast of the Chablis Grand Cru hill along with holdings in the Grand Cru Les Preuses, along with the 1er Cru vineyards Fourchaume and Mont de Milieu. Their state-of-the-art, gravity-flow winery produces top-flight Chablis with racing acidity, immense depth, and texture. Discover the beauty of the Fevre family's most underrated family members.

Chablis is loved by wine geeks and everyday drinkers alike for its characteristic minerality and finesse. Chablis' distinct terroir is due to a unique soil type found only in Chablis, Champagne, and southern England called Kimmeridgian. An ancient soil, 180 million-year-old to be exact, made up of clay and limestone that contains fossilized oyster shells. These fossilized sea creatures are attributed to Chablis being such an excellent pairing for oysters and fresh seafood. In addition to the minerality, Chablis is known for its incredible structure and mouthwatering salinity. If you haven't had the pleasure of falling in love with Chablis yet, what are you waiting for?

Domaine Fevre comes from parcels situated beside the village of Fontenay-Près-Chablis, on high plains and steep hills with an average vine age of 25 years old. Some parcels that were planted by Gilles’ great-grandfather, Marcel, in the 1950s still remain to this day. Marcel along with Gilles’ father both held the position of President at the leading cooperative La Chablisienne. The family has had a knack for producing high-quality wine for generations.  

Vaulorent is a rare 5.4-acre Premier Cru vineyard right next to Chablis’ top Grands Crus. Its wines boast rich fullness like Fourchaume but with extra elegance and charm.

With southwest exposure on distinctive Kimméridgian marl soil—clay, limestone, and fossilized oysters—this 100% Chardonnay delivers true terroir power.

2022 was an incredible vintage for Burgundy. Vinous Media blessed this year with a 96 point review, and said: "The style of 2022 is primed for early consumption, more than 2019 or 2020. The 2022 Burgundy vintage offers a bounty for those with a passion for its wines.

Aging: 15 months on fine lees, 15% in new oak barrels and the rest in stainless steel tanks, it’s bottled and stored carefully to preserve freshness.

Tasting Notes

100% Chardonnay. Bright and inviting, this wine opens with ripe orchard fruits—think crisp apples and juicy pears—woven with subtle citrus zest. The palate is generous and round, showcasing luscious stone fruit and a hint of white flowers. Silky texture and balanced acidity carry through to a smooth, elegant finish with a whisper of mineral freshness.
