Chablis Bougros William Fevre 2017 (750ML)

92 Points, William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2017 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros bursts from the bottle with an exuberant, fruit-forward bouquet of peaches, citrus blossom and Meyer lemon. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with an ample core of fruit, ripe but tangy acids and a precise finish." 4/19

94 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2017 Chablis Bougros Grand Cru is a dense, phenolic and powerful wine that captures the tiny yields of the vintage. Lemon confit, pear, white flowers, mint and lightly honeyed notes explode from the glass in a Chablis endowed with tremendous character as well as persistence. This is an especially ample, full-bodied edition of this wine." 01/20

90-92 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2017 Chablis Bougros Grand Cru suffered a lot of frost damage and was picked at less than 20hl/ha. It has a refined bouquet, nicely delineated if just missing a little focus and energy. The palate is well balanced with good salinity on the entry, but the remainder of the palate does not follow through with the same precision and tension as the other Grand Crus." 8/18

94 Points, James Suckling, jamessuckling.com: "Aromas of crushed stones and oyster shell here with a fresh, lemon and yellow-grapefruit edge. The palate has a very taut and composed feel with really assertive acidity, combined with such juicy and fleshy fruit. The result is long and delicious! Drink or hold." 8/19

90-92 Points, Allen Meadows' Burghound: "A cool and ripe nose features notes of pear and apple that possess background nuances of iodine and seashell. There is excellent mid-palate concentration to the big, very rich and concentrated flavors that display a very round and suave mouth feel, all wrapped in a powerful, dry and slightly rustic finale. This muscular effort delivers sneaky good length and if it can develop more depth than I imagine with time in bottle, it's possible that my projected range will be exceeded." 10/18
