Chablis Grand Cru - Valmur - Francois Raveneau 2016 - Magnum
The domain
Born in 1948 from the marriage of two great Chablis families (the Raveneau and the Dauvissat), the Raveneau estate is the benchmark for Chablis. Indeed, and for several decades now, this estate has been the greatest expression of what a Chablis wine can give.
The estate, quite compact, covers 7.5 ha, notably in Butteaux, Chapelot and Montée de Tonnerre for the Premiers Crus, Valmur, les Clos and Blanchot for the Grands Crus.
All wine spends at least a year in barrel. The resulting wines are lively, ample and complex.

Tasting: offers a complex nose, with aromas of lemon, almond, white flowers, and mineral notes. The palate lives up to the promises of the nose: ample, fresh and dynamic, incredibly racy and perfectly balanced; the long finish with lemony and mineral notes ends the tasting in style. Absolutely dazzling! |
