Raveneau
Francois Raveneau, an elusive but stoic vigneron, founded the domaine in 1948. It is now run by Bernard and Jean-Marie, two brothers. They have miniscule yields of hand harvested Chardonnay in many of Chablis finest sites. Each of their holdings is no larger than a suburban house. This Burgundy has a cult following.

Wine Advocate (93+)My favorite premier cru in the range this year is the 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux, a lovely wine that wafts from the glass with aromas of citrus oil, green apple, pear, oyster shell and pastry cream. Medium to full-bodied, taut and structured, with fine concentration and chalky extract, it concludes with a mouthwateringly saline finish. |

Vinous (88-90)The 2021 Chablis-Villages comes from two parcels, the main one just opposite Epinottes. It shows quite a bit of reduction though you can still tell there is plenty of vibrant, citrus-fresh, blood orange-tinged fruit underneath. The palate is well balanced with a lilting entry, fine weight, just a very slight honeyed texture on the mid-palate and smile-inducing purity towards the finish. Enjoy this over the next decade. |
