Description

Domaine Raveneau is arguably the greatest estate in Chablis. The Domaine produces limited quantities of wines from the village’s top vineyards. The Domaine’s holdings include 3 Grand Cru vineyards: Blanchot, Les Clos, and Valmur; and a selection of Premier Crus: Montée de Tonnerre, Les Vaillons, Butteaux, Chapelot, Mont-Mains, and Forêt. The Domaine’s creation dates back to 1948 when François Raveneau consolidated his holdings with his wife’s parcels. François Raveneau built the reputation of this estate thanks to his inimitable style and incredible consistency in quality.

This Blanchot is made from 0.64 hectares of 85-year-old vines.

Some depth of colour, but a lean bright, and floral bouquet. Then full, if quite soft, white fruit through the middle of the palate, finishing on a more saline note. All quite discreet at the moment.

Review

This is aromatically quite similar to the Montée de Tonnerre with just a touch more wood in evidence. Here too the slightly richer flavours possess an equally gorgeous texture with a bit more mid-palate stuffing to the intense, powerful and bone-dry finale that exhibits simply huge length. This beauty is even firmer, and I wouldn't even think about opening a bottle for at least 10 years, research purposes aside!
