Louis Moreau farms 52 acres in the villages of Beines and Chablis, most of his parcels on sandy clay. He ferments this wine in stainless steel without added yeasts, then ages it on the fine lees. In 2018, he achieved a...

(92-94 points) Tasted from tank just prior to bottling, the 2017 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru shows why this vintage is so compelling. Apricot, peach and tropical fruit give the 2017 a decidedly exotic flair, and yet bright...

(92+ points) The 2019 Saint-Romain Sous le Château is also excellent, offering up aromas of citrus oil and crisp Anjou pear mingled with hints of fresh hazelnut and almond. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and...

(90-93 points) A timid nose grudgingly offers up its aromas of citrus rind, oyster shell, petrol and tidal pool. There is very good freshness and energy to the solidly concentrated middle weight flavors that possess...

(91-94 points) There is an interesting, if very subtle, minty character to the ripe, expressive and attractively layered nose of both white and yellow peach, nectarine and iodine along with a plethora of floral elements...

Fevre's Montée de Tonnerre comes from all three sectors. Seguier notes that Pied d'Aloup has the highest marn content, Montée de Tonnerre adds weight and the old Chapelot vines (planted in 1936) add finesse. More closed...

(91-94 points) Pale primrose here, very vibrant in colour and bouquet. Complex nose with some tension, a very faint toast in a way which works, and a sense of energy to the fruit – indeed more in fruit than flowers...

(90-92 points) The 2021 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru comes from 3.80-hectares within the three climats, one-third each, and is generally a late-ripening cuvée. The aromatics were very primal on the nose with touches of...

(90-92 points) The mildly exotic aromas of yellow orchard fruit, petrol and quinine give way to dense and sappy flavors that also possess fine volume on the powerful, saline and bone-dry finale. This is coming along very...

Fevre's Vaulorent is just a little more precise on the nose. Seguier says it is always elegant, always fresh. Fevre's take on this renowned premier cru has an understated nose yet you can feel the power within. Lovely...

Very classic nose with delicate citrus-blossom and floral-honey notes. Very elegant with a finely etched medium body and a very long, salty yet refined finish. Just beginning to open up. Drink or hold.

The 70-year-old vines at Aux Bouthières grow at a 1.6-acre parcel of deep clay and shale, yielding a lime-scented wine with sweet notes of buttered almonds and coconut. It’s a full and satisfying style of chardonnay...

(91-93 points) William Fevre have just over a hectare consisting of three plots at the Beauroy end of Troëmes, where the grapes need to be picked early. 30% currently under wood after vinification. Very elegant, quite...

(92-94 points) A subtle but still noticeable application of wood surrounds the elegant mix of white peach, apricot, sea breeze, floral and shellfish scented nose where a hint of phenolic character appears. The dense...

Fresh and ripe aromas include those of green fruit, a plethora of citrus elements and background hint of the exotic. The very rich and full-bodied flavors possess a very generous mouthfeel while the moderately firm acid...

(89-91 points) Ripe aromas are comprised mostly by notes of poached pear, petrol and rosemary oil. There is once again good punch and detail if only average density to the delicious and relatively refined flavors that...
