CHABLIS Domaine Nathalie & Gilles Fevre 2022
This CHABLIS comes from plots located near the village of FONTENAY-Près-CHABLIS, in the very heart of the vineyards of Chablis.
On high plains and steep hills, these vineyards are planted on stony soils (Kimmeridgien limestone) that allow moderate production. Most of the vines are between 15 and 25 years old. Some parcels were planted by Gilles' grandfather, Marcel, around 1950/1960.
Beautiful light lemon colour with delicate greenish hues. The nose is delicate, slightly floral and citrusy, with hints of white fruits and candy. Vibrantly fresh, elegant, slightly buttery with sweet fruit and a delicate bitterness.
Pleasant as an aperitif, it pairs well with oysters, mussels and grilled fish, but also with traditional Burgundian recipes such as 'jambom persillé' (ham with parsley).

Fevre
Семейство FÈVRE е родено преди няколко века в сърцето на лозята на Шабли. Всъщност можем да проследим родословното им дърво от 1745 г. насам. Семейството винаги е работило в лозята. И двамата са енолози, Натали и Жил работят ръка за ръка и си поделят основните задачи. Увлечен от работата в лозето, Жил контролира всичко, което се случва в земите на семейството, като се стреми да запази наследството, предавано от поколение на поколение. По този начин налагат устойчив производствен подход, за да ограничат интервенциите в лозето, което позволява на тероара да изрази своята уникалност. От 2015 г. решават да следват пътя на сертификата HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale = Имение с високи екологични стойности). Тяхното имение получава сертификат "Имение с високи екологични ценности", ниво 3, не само заради начините на биологично производство, но и заради опазването на околната среда в по-глобален план. Този сертификат, който е най-високото ниво на сертификация според Министерството на земеделието на Франция, оценява всички усилия от създаването от 2004 г. насам. Семейство Февр са част от Union des Grands Crus de Chablis и участват в развитието на най-добрите домейни в Шабли. UGCC позволява да получават отлична обратна връзка от други домейни и перспективи за постоянно подобряване на качеството на вината.

Burgundy
In this area, red wines are produced from one variety - Pinot Noir, but the wines actually vary in quality from light and ordinary to rich, complex and truly majestic. Burgundy is famous for its small vineyards and it is generally believed that the smaller the area of the vineyard, the better the wine. The best Burgundy wines come from Côte d'Or, a strip of only 30 miles, divided in the center into 2 separate parts; Côte de Nuit to the north and Côte de Beaune to the south. The fame of Cotê de Nuits is in the red wines - 95% of Pinot Noir grapes are produced here. Of course, here are some of the best, able to age, the most exotic and expensive wines. The Côte de Beaune produces approximately 38% white wine, 60% red wine and 2% sparkling wine. The white wine variety is exclusively Chardonnay, and the quality varies from the best, Montrachets and Corton Charlemagnes, Meursault, Puligny and Chassagne to the more ordinary Macon Blanc. The former are traditionally aged in small oak barrels, while Macon wines are usually lighter in character and have a good value for money. The red wines from Beaune do not have the fame of their "brothers" from Côte de Nuit, with exceptions here are those who come from Pomard, Corton and Volney. In general, they are lighter in style, but depending on the harvest they can show potential that successfully competes with the Côte de Nuits and beyond.

Chardonnay
Chardonnay is the world's most famous white-wine grape and also one of the most widely planted. Of course, the most highly regarded expressions of the variety are those from Burgundy and California, but many high-quality examples are made in Italy, Australia, New Zealand and parts of South America. Describing the flavours of Chardonnay is not easy. This is not thanks to the complexity of the varietal itself but usually due its susceptibility to winemaking techniques - such as Malolactic fermentation which gives distinctive buttery aromas or Fermentation or maturation in oak barrels which contributes to the wine with smokey notes of vanilla, honey and even cinnamon, and not last the lees contact while in barrel imparts biscuity, doughy flavours. And all these incorporated with the varietal aromas of tropical (banana, pineapple and guava) to stone fruits (peach, nectarine and apricot), sometimes even citrus and apple notes. Climate plays a major role in dictating which fruit flavours a Chardonnay will have - warm regions (California, Australia ) make more tropical styles; temperate zones (southern Burgundy, New Zealand) - stone fruit notes, while the very coolest (Chablis, Champagne) lean towards green-apple aromas.
