The 2014 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons from Domaine Raveneau is a highly sought-after example of Chablis. It offers a complex aromatic profile of white flowers, green apple and wet stones, evolving with hints of honeycomb and a distinct saline minerality. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet remarkably precise, with a taut acidity and concentrated fruit that provide structure and depth. Domaine Raveneau holds multiple parcels within the Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons vineyard, whose Kimmeridgian marl soils and varied exposures contribute to the wine`s complex minerality.

Vinous
Reticent nose shows little in the way of fruit. Quite tightly wound and dry, conveying a lemony edge and hints of peppery herbs. Much less exuberant than usual for this wine at this stage. Will it expand in bottle? (I noted a similar hardness and astringency in my recently bottled sample a year.)Stephen Tanzer1st July 2016
