William Fèvre declared his first vintage in 1959, marking the birth of the domaine and a pivotal moment in the production of quality-focused Chablis. Garnering over 250 years of family experience working the land in this region, Fèvre established himself as a winemaker with a modest seven hectares of vineyards. Slowly and methodically, the domaine acquired new vineyard sites in Chablis over the years, all situated in historic terroirs. At the same time, it became synonymous with technological advancement and led the charge of environmental stewardship, embracing organic viticulture since 2000 (certification commencing from the 2023 vintage), and biodynamic practices initiated in 2010 across 32 hectares.

Les Clos is the largest and most prestigious Grand Cru in Chablis, so it comes as no surprise that Domaine William Fèvre stakes its claim as the most influential landowner here. This shining example comes from a cooler microclimate at the very top of the hill, resulting in a remarkably fresh, complex, and age-worthy wine.
