Domaine William Fèvre

The name William Fèvre has become synonymous with Chablis and today is arguably one of its greatest domaines. From humble beginnings in 1957 with a mere 7 hectares, William Fèvre soon procured some of the best premiers and grands crus in Chablis.

Domaine William Fèvre is the largest owner of Grands Crus in Chablis, covering 70 hectares or 90 separate plots in the heart of the Chablis vineyards - the majority of which are farmed biodynamically. William Fèvre took over the reins of the family estate in 1959 and in January 2024, the Domaine William Fevre joined the Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) family.

At the heart of Domaine William Fèvre, Didier Séguier embodies an historic figure. As Director, he has not only brought his expertise, but also his intrinsic values, enthusiasm, and innovative vision. Accompanied by François Ménin, Vineyard Manager, and Pascal Reynaud, Cellar Master, Didier has been committed to environmental viticulture since 2000, blending tradition and innovation to express the authenticity of Chablis terroirs. With this approach, the estate pays meticulous attention to every stage, from vineyard to cellar. In the cellar, the cellar master acts as a conductor, guiding the wines according to the quality standards set by the estate.

To preserve freshness and minerality, and to allow the subtle nuances of Chablis terroirs to shine, the estate opts for aged, seasoned barrels instead of new ones, on average 6 years old.
