Founded in 1948, Domaine François Raveneau is one of Chablis`s finest producers, with a cult following all over the world. The estate comprises eight hectares of land spread across three Grand Cru and six Premier Cru sites. All the grapes are harvested manually, one of the very few remaining producers in Chablis to do so. This release comes from Montée de Tonnerre, a Premier Cru where the grapes ripen easily, especially since they are protected from the East winds. 2003 will be remembered in Burgundy for its ferocious heatwave, but the best producers managed to make spectacular wines from that unusual vintage.
91 Vinous
Surprisingly bright yellow. Mint, honey, truffle and a balsamic note on the rather unusual nose, with a hint of citron confit the only clear sign of fruit. Fat, chewy and thick, revealing a hint of bitterness from thick grape skins. The lemon note carries through on the palate of this rather uncompromising, even tannic Chablis. This will get more truffley as it continues to unfold. Not gone, says Isabelle, succinctly. I would not be surprised to find more flavor interest with further aging, but this wine will never become Chablis-like.Stephen Tanzer1st August 2019
