Score 87-89/100 · Neal Martin, Vinous, Jun 2021
The 2020 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru is cloudy and very primal on the nose, making it difficult to read. The palate has good depth and plenty of rondeur. It’s quite rich relative to other cuvées and does not quite deliver the same tension on the finish. Possibly one of the early-drinking Premier Crus from William Fèvre.

Established in the late 1950s, William Fèvre was one of the leaders in Chablis’s renaissance. Today he crafts benchmark expressions of fine Chardonnay from some of the top vineyard sites in the region, working with many of the best Premier and Grand Cru vineyards.
