William Fevre Chablis les Lys 1er Cru (750ML)

From Chablis

Vintage: 2020
Description: 93+ Wa / 93 De / 91-94 Jm / 92 Bh. The 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys is also especially good this year, delivering aromas of white flowers, citrus oil, freshly baked bread and bee pollen. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with a fleshy core of fruit and racy girdling acids, this cool, marl-rich site has evidently excelled in 2020.-William Kewlley, The Wine Advocate. Very cool north-facing site, which is a sub-section of Vaillons and home to 50-60-year-old vines producing small, very concentrated berries. Intense and fruit-driven but has lovely freshness to support the density on the palate. Persistent, mineral, with touch of orange spice on the aftertaste. Very impressive already.-Andy Howard Mw, Decanter. A little fuller yellow in colour, a wealth of fruit here, more flesh, fewer stones, but backed with very good acidity. This is tenacious, concentrated and very promising. Tasted: June 2021.-Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Tasting note: Agreeably fresh and pretty aromas are comprised by those of cool and restrained spiced apple, sea breeze and white floral nuances. The intense and utterly delicious middleweight flavors possess a chalky texture while displaying fine detail on the lingering bitter lemon-inflected finish. This delicate effort isn't especially dense but offers the hallmark finesse of a quality Les Lys. Lovely. Outstanding. –Allen Meadows, Burghound
