  • Tasting and food pairings

    The wine has a lovely shimmer with a pretty golden colour with green reflections. The rich and complex nose is characterized by pleasant and subtle floral and mineral aromas. It has a wonderful structure in the mouth with minerality, and charming chardonnay-typical aromas. It is a harmonious wine that is not only fine and elegant, but also has an excellent aromatic persistence.
    Best appreciated cold with oysters, shellfish, fish, and/or goats cheese

    • Chablis 2022 - Burgundy Report, Bill Nanson - "Vibrantly mineral"

      Also vibrantly mineral but here with an extra sucrosity that invites. The flavour has some scale and is more herbed in style. I love the nose, a little less the flavour. (Uk, March 2024)


    • Chablis 2021 - Vert de Vin - June 2023 - 15+ / 89-90

      The nose is fruity and offers elegance as well as good definition. It reveals notes of lemon blossom, yuzu and small notes of citrus zest associated with touches of dried citrus fruits as well as a very fine floral and saline hint. The palate is fruity, mineral, saline, suave and offers a certain roundness. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of lychee, quenette and small notes of bright vine peach associated with touches of juicy/sweet mandarin as well as slight hints of zest and sweet grapefruit. Good length. A discreet hint of good bitterness in the background. Good length.

    • Chablis 2021 - Burgundy Report Bill Nanson - February 2023

      Extra width and a bit more depth to this nose. Extra energy too. It is a broad, mouth-filling wine. Lots of minerality and an agrume style fruit. This also needs to calm a little but I think it is much more balanced than the Petit Chablis. Very good - keep it 2-3 years before attacking!

    • Chablis 2018 - James Suckling - USA - 89/100

      There's an attractive, sweet, floral fragrance here with a fresh, ripe melon and pear core. Some light peach flavor on the palate, too. Fresh, easygoing style.

    • Chablis 2018 - James Suckling - 89 points

      There's an attractive, sweet, floral fragrance here with a fresh, ripe melon and pear core. Some light peach flavor on the palate, too. Fresh, easygoing style. Drink now.

    • Chablis 2018 - The Herald - UK - August 2020

      Try Simmonet Febvre Chablis 2018 which wins points for freshness and purity, from one of the oldest and most established producers in the region.

    • Chablis 2016 - James Suckling - February 2018 - 91/100

      If you're looking for the elegance for which Chablis are famous for, here it is. This has great balance of citrus and flinty characteristics. Good depth but only medium body. A long and rather complex finish. Drink or hold.

    • Simonnet-Febvre Chablis 2015 - 92/100 - James Suckling - April 2017Gorgeous sliced lemons and cooked apples with hints of peaches and stones. Medium to full body, bright fruit and a flavorful finish. Stony. Drink now and enjoy.
    • 15.5/20 Chablis 2015 - Le Point - Septembre 2017Fruits blancs, bouche vive, bonne tension, élégant, nerveux, calcaire, long et fin.
    • Chablis 2015 - Japan Wine Challenge 2016 - Silver Medal
    • Chablis 2015 - Wine Advocate - 86/100.

      The 2015 Chablis Village has an upfront bouquet with Granny Smith apples and light smoky scents. The palate is well balanced with a saline entry, notes of cooking apple and pear. Not bad for a 2015 Chablis and it should drink nicely over the next 3-5 years. Drink 2016-2020.

    • Chablis 2014 - 89/100 - Wine Spectator - May 2017

      Honey, apple, and flint flavors are the hallmarks of this white, which is round but has good cut. Long lime-and-stone finish. Drink now through 2021.
