Notes:
John Gilman's View from the Cellar, Nov/Dec 2010
The 2009 Valmur is one of the undisputed stars in the William Fvre cellars thisyear and is a profound bottle of Chablis grand cru in the making. The brilliant nose offersup a very Raveneau-like aromatic mix of candied lemon, apple, orange, kaleidoscopicminerality, spring flowers and a faint whiff of grassiness in the upper register. On thepalate the wine is full-bodied, very, very pure and rock solid at the core, with great,nascent complexity, racy acidity, laser-like focus and excellent grip on the very, verylong, young and classy finish. A tour de force! 2017-2040+. 95 points
It's arguable that in 2009 that this is the most elegant and refined winein the range as the ultra pure and airy white flower, citrus zest, iodineand oyster shell aromas complement to perfection the extremely fresh andsilkily textured flavors blessed with ample amounts of acid-buffering dryextract that culminate in an explosive yet harmonious and sophisticatedfinale with perhaps a bit less youthful austerity than usual. I very muchlike this. Burghound 94
