Domaine William Fèvre
Les Preuses Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay
Chablis, Burgundy, France
Decanted about 3 hours.
Nose has baked golden apple, cold beeswax, waxy citrus rind, subtle green banana peel, chalky paste and warmed pineapple.
Palate has citrus-vanilla, fresh cut yellow apple, lightly smoked pineapple and dried citrus peel.
A beautiful wine this evening, but the mid palate seems lacking. The third time we've had this same bottle this year, I think it's in decline, drink up in the next few years before the oxidative effects likely settle in.

Great. Wet rocks, citrus, green apple, saline. Great on it's own, and best with food

Super subtle, tart, steely citrus and chalk on the nose. On the palate, lemon, pineapple...very pineapple...fresh, tart, medium-bodied with medium-plus acidity. Not bracing acidity...slight roundness. Slight vanilla. Not what I expected from Chablis or from Fevre. We shall see with the Dungeness crab pairing...wow...shocking pineapple.
