2012 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Bougros - France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru (2/23/2022)
Heading for 10 years old, and the DIAM cork is doing its job. This is aging beautifully, and has just started to develop an extra layer of bottle aged richness. It’s mostly still about the oyster shell, salinity and lemon, but it gets broader through the mid-palate, and picks up a deeper citrus element rather than just the laser focus of lemon. Given how it has evolved over the last several years I have a lot of confidence continuing to age my last bottle, though I am not sure I will be willing to wait.
