Raveneau, Chablis Blanchots other_regions_australia This is the first wine

This is the first wine to display any appreciable amount of wood and even here it’s quite subtle as it easily allows the notably exotic aromas of dried yellow fruit

Good stuff that is built-to-age

Pungent aromas are composed by notes of reduction and wood toast at present

Rich and round

Raveneau, Chablis Blanchots other_regions_australia This is the first wine(from a . 65 ha parcel of very old vines of indeterminate age). Here too there is just a background hint of wood that does not intrude upon the wonderfully refined aromas that are airy, pure and lacy and exhibit largely the same components as the Monte de Tonnerre. The detailed and equally pure flavors are unusually forward with fine intensity and superb finishing length and minerality. I like the high level of extract and overall sense of balance. 93
