Domaine Francois Raveneau

Renowned for exceptional Chablis wines

Raveneau is widely regarded as the finest wine producer in Chablis. The domain was established by François Raveneau in 1948 and its reputation was forged by François’ sons, Bernard and Jean-Marie. The domain is currently run by cousins Isabelle (daughter of Bernard), who manages the cellar, and Maxime (son of Jean-Marie), who manages the vineyards. Unusually for Chabis producers, Raveneau ferments its wines in stainless steel tanks, only transferring wines to barrel after fermentation. This tends to produce wines thar are austere in youth, but which unfurl beautifully when appropriately aged.
