Paul Chavy Chablis Premier Cru "Fourchaume" 2023

The 2023 Fourchaume from Paul Chavy is generous yet finely etched: ripe lemon and green apple ride over a core of chalk, oyster-shell salinity, and a subtle flinty edge. The palate is broad and smoothly textured, lifted by brisk acidity and that classic stony tension. With no new oak showing, the fruit and mineral drive take center stage, finishing long, clean, and mouthwatering. Already approachable, it will gain detail over the next few years while retaining Fourchaume’s poised, elegant character.
