New notes from Neal Martin on some 2020 white Burgundies from the July 2024 Burgfest tasting suggest that they are only getting better. 2020 Nathalie & Gilles Fevre Preuses made the Top 20 of 226 wines tasted.
 
Nathalie and Gilles Fevre (no relation to William Fevre) have been putting out some top quality wines in recent years with consistent press across the board. Wines like their 2020 Preuses is one of the best QPR wines you will find for a vintage like 2020 white Burgundy which was a very small crop.

The 2020 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru has a concentrated bouquet, well-defined with citrus peel, crushed stone and light apple blossom aromas. This exudes Grand Cru status. The palate is well-balanced with seamlessly integrated oak, plenty of grip and extract, and lightly spiced with a powerful yet focused finish. It has all the potential here to become a great Chablis Grand Cru. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (July 2024) -- Neal Martin, Vinous Media

 

Still really pale in colour. Perhaps more volume than Vaulorent but not necessarily any classier. Perhaps greater tension on the palate, with a pure white fruit, a touch of liquorice and a mineral crunch to finish. Very good. Tasted: June 2022 --Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

 

Tasting note: Here the wood treatment is slightly more evident though it still remains a background element on the nose of essence of pear, iodine and pretty citrus wisps. There is first-rate density to the powerful yet refined, even sophisticated, middleweight plus flavors that brim with both dry extract and minerality on the compact, bone-dry and sneaky long finish. This is also built-to-age and a wine that should reward a decade plus.—Allen Meadows, Burghound
