Note di degustazione
Honey, baked apple, flint and some bay. Slightly oxidative notes on the palate, with still quite a bit of chew. Long, though showing quite a bit of maturity now. (TJ)

The 2013 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur has a sultry, quite backward bouquet at the moment: touches of wet earth, citrus peel and granite that all need a little more intensity. The palate is fresh and crisp on the entry, saline in the mouth with a twist of sour lemon, although the mineral finish just lacks a little persistence at the moment. I would give this another couple of years in the cellar as the tension is commendable.
Even in the steeliness of Chablis, there's still lots to the aroma here: green fruit and smoky/stony citrus. Lean and crisp on the palate, less intensity than the Bougros and the Vaudésir. The delicacy works well in the middle but is a bit dilute on the finish. (JH)
The 2013 Chablis Valmur is magnificent. Veins of bright, stony minerality support the fruit in a tense, brilliant wine that brings together considerable textural richness and bright acidity. All the elements fall into place effortlessly. Fèvre's Valmur emerges from the cooler, top section of the vineyard.
