(2x75cl) 2015Wine Advocate (94)
The 2015 Chablis 1er Cru Montee de Tonnerre has a tightly wound bouquet with a slight fumé note at first, then a trace of sea cave and a tang of the sea. The palate is very well balanced with a fine line of acidity. This has wonderful harmony, a dash of nutmeg and spice that emerges toward the finish and a very persistent aftertaste that will not go away (not that you want it to). This is an outstanding Montée de Tonnerre destined to give a lot of Chablis-lovers a lot of pleasure.Inc. GSTSG$1,343.05 -

This is perhaps the most elegant and floral-infused wine in the range with its array of various white flower scents, especially acacia that are nuanced by wisps of ocean breeze, iodine and algae. The restrained and well-detailed flavors possess a sophisticated and refined mouthfeel while the stony and chiseled finish exhibiting excellent persistence on the bone-dry finish. This is class in a glass and a stunning rendition of the appellation though note well that at least moderate patience is strongly advised.Inc. GSTSG$1,817.20 -

A discreet, even timid nose speaks of markedly cool, airy and admirably pure aromas of high-toned floral wisps, iodine and plenty of oyster shell and tidal pool nuances that are trimmed in just enough wood to mention. The racy, mineral-driven and ultra-refined middle weight flavors possess the finest and most delicate texture in the entire range, all wrapped in a strikingly long and strikingly layered finale. This is textbook MdT and a genuine knockout.Inc. GSTSG$855.19 -

(Outstanding) A more elegant and ultra-cool nose reveals its combination of floral, citrus zest, iodine and that briny sea water character the best examples of Chablis all seem to possess, all of which is trimmed in moderate but not invasive wood. There isn't quite the same volume on the palate as the Butteaux, but the middleweight flavors are notably more refined before terminating in a driving, chiseled and citrusy bone-dry finale. I very much like the focused power of the finish and this classy effort should also amply reward extended cellaring.Inc. GSTSG$585.96 -

TOP QUALITY PRODUCER As expected with Montée de Tonnerre, there are great reserves of power and energy here. Concentrated, fine and with great purity, oak adds subtle extra dimensions in the background. Lovely acidity and a touch of spice to finish. Great class. Raveneau's Montée de Tonnerre is over 3ha in area, accounting for around 1/3 of the estates holdings. Around 1.8ha are located on the mid-slopes of Chapelot. with 1.2ha at higher altitude in Pied d'Aloup which adds additional freshness and vivacity.Inc. GSTSG$1,924.66 -

Outstanding. A more elegant nose freely offers up its combination of airy white flowers, wet stone, spice, citrus, oyster shell and subtle quinine wisps. As is usually the case, the mouthfeel of the vibrant middle weight flavors is positively sublime and this markedly more sophisticated texture carries over to the almost painfully intense, mineral-driven and even longer finish that is bone-dry and quite austere at present. This is a stunner of MdT and a wine that should also repay extended keeping. Like the Butteaux, if you can find it, buy it and then forget you own it for a decade, or more.Inc. GSTSG$3,843.86 -
(1x75cl) 2000Vinous (90)
Quite closed on the nose; hints at peach and nectarine. Then broad and creamy in the mouth, with strong mineral notes of wet stone and petrol and a minty nuance. Builds nicely toward the dusty, broad back end. Showing well now.Inc. GSTSG$855.54 -
(1x75cl) 2003Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89-91)
Pure but reticent aromas of lime blossom, quinine and mint; very Chablis . Penetrating, juicy flavors of lime, grapefruit, white flowers and mint. Finishes long and firm, with excellent cut, but this taut, thoroughly ripe wine is not at all hard.Inc. GSTSG$725.83 -
(1x75cl) 2005Jancis Robinson (18)
Very different from the Montée de Tonnerre. Fresh, dusty citrus. Delicate and lightly citrussy. Then savoury, dry and intensely fresh on the palate. Fine-lined but not in the least lean. Sinewy length and power. Bright and mouthwatering.Inc. GSTSG$833.39 -
(1x75cl) 2006Vinous (91)
Bright yellow. Reticent but very ripe aromas of peach, minerals and honey. Sweet, broad and ripe, but with lovely harmonious acidity framing the orange and honey flavors and imbuing the wine with freshness. Finishes saline, rich and quite long, with noteworthy mineral grip. This is awfully attractive right now.Inc. GSTSG$803.22 -

Pale, green-tinged color. Precise but tight nose hints at citrus peel and minerals. Dense, chewy and tactile, with a captivating sweetness for the year. The ripe citrus, floral and powdered stone flavors are given definition by lemony acidity. Finishes persistent and pure.

The 2009 Chablis Vaillons is all about delineation, focus and transparency. It is a compelling, marvelously subtle wine in every way.

The 2010 Chablis Vaillons shows off a gorgeous, multi-dimensional personality. White flowers, white stone fruits and slate are some of the nuances that emerge from the understated, classy finish. This is one of the more vibrant 2010s. My guess is that it is at the beginning of an upward trajectory that is likely to take it quite high.Inc. GSTSG$1,022.31 -
(1x75cl) 2011Vinous (92)
The Chablis Vaillons is quite striking in 2011. Subtle, elegant and beautifully perfumed, the 2011 shows a level of delineation and inner fragrance that is uncommon in this vintage. This feminine, gracious Chablis is drop-dead gorgeous today. Floral notes reappear on the finish, adding further lift, energy and focus.Inc. GSTSG$721.12 -
(1x75cl) 2013Wine Advocate (92)
The 2013 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons does not quite deliver the same intensity as the Montmains at the moment, although it is still well defined with more of a sea spray influence coming through. The palate is fresh and crisp on the entry, just a suggestion of dried honey on the front palate, before it gently fans out on a walnut/smoky finish that is cut from the same cloth as the Montmains '13, albeit with an extra pinch of spice. This is excellent.Inc. GSTSG$735.64 -

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.)Inc. GSTSG$11,023.13 -

The 2015 Chablis 1Er Cru Vaillons was difficult to pin down last year from barrel when it trailed behind the other premier crus. Of course, it was just playing a trick on this writer because it has blossomed into one fabulous Vaillons. It is blessed with a pretty, wet limestone-scented bouquet, very open and transparent with a touch of spice developing with aeration. The palate skips along, fresh and tensile with a keen thread of acidity. I love the tension here that enlivens this Chablis from start to finish and lends the finish real energy and persistence. What a great Vaillons this is turning out to be and a bit of a revelation after its showing from barrel.Inc. GSTSG$741.83 -

Often credited with converting the most ardent of Chardonnay sceptics, Chablis is the cooler Northern cousin to the wines of Burgundy’s famed Cote d’Or. Whether a Petit Chablis or from one of the seven Grand Cru vineyards, the unique Kimmeridgian soil of Chablis produces wines known for their intense freshness and minerality, often described as “flinty” or "steely.”
