William Fèvre estate wines: buy at the best price
This iconic estate was acquired some twenty years ago by Bouchard Père et Fils and now belongs to the Henriot group. The William Fèvre estate is located in the town of Chablis, not far from estates such as La Chablisienne, Vincent Dauvissat, Jean Paul Droin, Laroche, Raveneau, Moreau Naudet and Simon Billaud. The William Fèvre estate covers the Chablis Grand Cru appellations (Bougros côte de bouguerot, Bougros, Les Clos, les Preuses, Valmur, Vaudésir), Chablis 1ers crus (Beauroy, Fourchaume, Les Lys, Mont de milieu, Montmains, Montée de Tonnerre, Vaulorent, Vaillons), Chablis and Petit Chablis. The vineyard covers an area of 78 hectares planted exclusively with Chardonnay. The vines, cultivated using sustainable farming methods, grow on Kimmeridgian soil (where sediments composed of large quantities of small fossilised oysters, Ostrea virgula, were deposited). The William Fèvre estate was awarded the High Environmental Value certification in January 2015. Two thirds of the estate's vines have been cultivated organically since 2006 and with a biodynamic approach since 2010.
