ripe and almost dense

There is good volume and richness to the solidly well-concentrated and appealingly textured medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent depth and length on the quite firmly structured finish where a touch of dryness appears that I suspect is attributable to the recent bottling rather than under ripe tannins

Interestingly given the style of the vintage this isn’t quite a big and robust as it usually is which should permit it to be approachable after only 6 to 8 years yet it has the stuffing to effortlessly develop over 15 to 18

William Fevre, Chablis Bougros Cote Bouguerots Size:3x1.5L ripe and almost dense(from a 2. 2 ha parcel at the bottom section of the vineyard; even so, the vineyard is so steep here that it must be worked entirely by hand as tractors would be dangerous to use). This is also completely classic and even more aromatically complex with a plethora of sea shore nuances to the cool green fruit scents. On the palate this is dense, powerful and quite serious with brooding flavors that brim with dry extract that buffers the firm acid spine
