Fèvre/William Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 2014

97 points/'Don't miss!' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 4 separate parcels totaling 4.11 ha, 3 of which are all at the top of the slope). A broad-ranging and wonderfully elegant array features notes of spice, green apple, grapefruit, lemon rind and copious Chablis elements. Remarkably for a wine that is gorgeously refined, the medium-bodied and concentrated flavors are even more powerful than those of the Bougros and Valmur, all wrapped in a superbly complex, saline and balanced finish where the citrus character telegraphed by the nose reappears on the explosive finale. There is a bit of wood in evidence but I doubt that it will take very long before it is fully integrated. In sum, this is one to strongly consider. If you can find it, buy it. Drink: 2026+. (Oct 2016)"

96+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "There can be no doubt that I tasted some absolutely monumental and historical examples of 2014 Les Clos during my November trip, and the Domaine William Fèvre version is right up there with the very finest. The totally refined and still quite primary nose delivers a superb constellation of apple, a touch of pear, just a bit of tangerine, chalky, flinty minerality, orange blossoms and a bit of beeswax in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and rock solid at the core, with great acids, laser-like focus and a profoundly promising, long and vibrant finish. A brilliant wine. 2021-2055. (Nov/Dec 2015)"

96 points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous): "Very pale lemon-green. Pure, discreet, thoroughly ripe aromas of lime confit, white flowers, wild herbs and crushed stone. Broad and ripe on the attack, but with a magically weightless impression and outstanding inner-mouth energy to the flavors of lime and orange zest, grapefruit, white flowers and minerals. Utterly seamless, densely packed Clos with great rising, palate-saturating length. William Fèvre owns eight parcels representing a total of four hectares of vines in this great site, mostly at the top of the cru. Drink: 2023-2038. (Jul 2016)"

96 points Tim Atkin, MW: "Fèvre’s holdings in the Grand Cru are extensive, running to four hectares and nine separate parcels, 80% of them in the upper part. Old vine concentration and a remarkable terroir have combined to produce a dense, focused, iodine-scented wine that handles its oak with ease. A Chablis with remarkable length and intensity. 2020-30."

95 points/'Best Chablis 2014 Wines,' Decanter: "Ripe nose of stone fruit and floral notes with a tense yet supple texture and mineral finish. A very concentrated wine of great elegance. Drinking Window: 2018 - 2028."

93-95 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "The 2014 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is 70% vinified in oak barrels for six months before maturation in stainless steel only. It has a very precise but powerful bouquet with lemon rind and flint scents, though it takes time to really open up. The palate is fresh and crisp with lime and apricot on the entry. The acidity is sharp and penetrating, gently building toward an intense, bitter-lemon finish that is elegant and refined. This is very impressive. Drink: 2017-2032. (Aug 2015)"

94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Pale colour with notable green tints, reductive style, but not dramatically so. Quite a fine chassis to this, long and elegant, not blockbuster. More at the back of the palate than the front. Very, very young perhaps? DIAM 10. (May 2017)"

94 points Wine Spectator: "Sweet spice hints accent the green apple, greengage plum and mineral flavors in this lean, laserlike white. Lanolin and spice accents linger on the fresh, persistent aftertaste. Drink now through 2023. 120 cases imported. (6/30/16)"
