90 points and a Smart Buy from the Wine Spectator: "Aromas of oyster shell and wet stone overlay melon and ripe apple in this round Chablis, which is open and supple, with a lingering, juicy finish that shows citrus accents. Drink now through 2014. 20,000 cases made." (12/11) According to Wine Enthusiast: "A great success, showing ripe fruit and smoothness, laced with fine acidity. It has a creamy, toasty feel, rich green plums and a rounded warm texture." (9/1/2011) The maison & domain of Simonnet-Febvre were founded in 1840 by Jean Febvre, a barrel maker by trade from the town of Montbard. In the early days, the house was known for its sparkling Chardonnays from Chablis, known today as Crémant de Bourgogne. Over the years, the Febvres acquired holdings in some of the greatest terroirs in Chablis. Today, the domain comprises approximately 9 acres, crowned by a 2/3 acre plot in the Grand Cru vineyard of Les Preuses with 3.5 acres of 1er Cru Mont de Milieu and 4.7 acres of communal Chablis vineyards.
