Marcel et Blanche Fevre-Fevre Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume

Winemaker Fèvre-Fèvre on the winery

“We are Nathalie and Gilles Fèvre, carrying on a long family tradition in Chablis. Our family has been connected to this region for generations, where we make Chardonnay that puts the character of the vineyard first. Nathalie focuses on winemaking, while Gilles looks after the vineyards. We pay close attention to the soil and the origin of our grapes. Our aim is to craft wines that are pure and expressive, with the distinctive freshness, minerality and finesse that make Chablis so special.”

And on Chablis, France

“Chablis has four quality levels: Petit Chablis, Chablis, Chablis Premier Cru and, at the top, Chablis Grand Cru. Premier Cru is therefore the second-highest level, reserved for precisely defined vineyards with distinctive terroir characteristics. Our Fourchaume comes from one of the best-known Premier Cru vineyards in Chablis. The Chardonnay vines grow in the region’s characteristic Kimmeridgian soil, rich in clay, limestone and fossilised seashells. The wine combines Chablis’ fresh citrus notes and minerality with extra depth, structure and a long, refined finish.”
