Domaine Raveneau is arguably the finest wine producer in Chablis with a solid reputation across the globe. The Domaine was established by François Raveneau in 1948 and is currently run by cousins Isabelle and Maxime. Raveneau pioneered the use of Côte d`Or winemaking in Chablis, including barrel fermentation and extended lees contact. This release comes from Les Vaillons, one of the largest Premier Cru vineyards in Chablis where Raveneau owns a 0.4-hectare parcel. Chablis lost a third of its normal crop in 2013, but the wines proved to be charming and expressive.

Vinous
(these vines were the first to be harvested in 2013): Bright, pale color. Fresh peach and lime on the pure nose. Boasts excellent energy for Vaillons, showing noteworthy precision and lift to the stone fruit and lemon curd flavors. Quite fresh on the long, pure finish. A lovely showing, but I'd give this another year or two in the cellar before pulling the cork.Stephen Tanzer1st August 2015
