The 2015 Chablis Butteaux Raveneau is a white Burgundy wine from the Premier Cru vineyard of Butteaux, presented in magnum format. The 2015 vintage in Chablis was ripe and generous, yielding powerful wines. This Butteaux shows a rich, broad texture, balanced by the site`s characteristic tension. It offers complex notes of wet stone, lemon oil and subtle smoky reduction, possessing a powerful concentration that benefits immensely from the magnum`s slower maturation.
Vinous
Pale yellow. Subtly complex aromas of quinine, lemon, mint and crushed stone; even more minerally than the Monteé de Tonnerre. Offers the most inner-mouth tension by far to this point, showing a sharply chiseled quality to its grapefruit and mineral flavors. (This site does great in warm years, noted Raveneau, as the portion of the vineyard at the rather flat top of the lieu-dit faces slightly northeast.) Fined-grained, dry and classic, but with the richness of the vintage.Stephen Tanzer1st July 2016
