Domaine William Fèvre’s 2011 les Clos is also a simply magical wine in the making. The superb bouquet shows of great depth and complexity in its mix of apple, lemon, tart orange, very complex, flinty minerality, spring flowers and a gentle topnote of lime zest. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and supremely elegant, with a rock solid core, stunning focus, length and grip, impeccable balance and a veritable mineral bath of a finish. A brilliant young bottle of les Clos.

The Fèvre 2011 Les Clos represents another vivid contrast with a corresponding 2012. The intensity of attack and grip of the latter are replaced here by mineral and herbal complexity that sneak up on your nose and a palate notable for its delicacy, transparency and lift. True, you could say that this is looser than the 2012, but that’s a judgment relative to a rather extreme exemplar of the latter vintage. Harmonious ripeness of white peach and citrus is shot-through with saliva-inducing oyster liqueur, incorporating shimmering suggestions of things saline, alkaline, seaweed-like and stony.
