The 2015 Champs Royaux bottling is produced from purchased grapes, but shares the fine bounce and mineral undertow of the domaine bottlings from William Fèvre this year.

On the palate the wine is full-bodied, pure and juicy, with fine focus and impressive backend grip and energy. A lovely example.

A bracing white, whose flavors of green apple, lemon and mineral are etched in the racy structure. Steely in the best sense, this ends with a lingering flourish of mineral. Drink now through 2016.

Oyster-shell reduction and a note of lime on the classic Chablis nose. Dense, juicy and firm, boasting excellent definition to its flavors of oyster shell, lime and white flowers.
