Domaine William Fevre

Founded by William Fevre in 1959, this is one of Chablis’ most substantial domaines with nearly 78 hectares of vineyards across the different ranks and parts of the Chablis area. With 12 hectares of Premier Cru vineyards and an impressive 16 hectares of Grand Cru vineyards, Domaine William Fevre is the biggest owner of Grand Cru land in Chablis. 

The domaine was sold to Joseph Henriot of the eponymous Champagne house in 1998, following which all the Grand Cru vineyards were converted to biodynamic farming and general oak use was reduced in order to emphasise purity and fruit precision in the wines.  The Premier Cru wines are generally vinified in 40-50% oak, the Grand Crus in 70-80% oak but no new oak is used for either. Average age of wood in cellar is five years old. 

Along with Raveneau and Dauvissat, Domaine William Fevre is one of the best producers in the area with an exemplary range of Chablis and the Grand Cru Les Clos – produced from vines averaging over 50 years old are among the best wines from Chablis year in, and year out.
