Raveneau
Francois Raveneau, an elusive but stoic vigneron, founded the domaine in 1948. It is now run by Bernard and Jean-Marie, two brothers. They have miniscule yields of hand harvested Chardonnay in many of Chablis finest sites. Each of their holdings is no larger than a suburban house. This Burgundy has a cult following.

Once again there is just enough wood to mention on the green fruit, shellfish, quinine-suffused nose. The sleekly muscular, rich, powerful and serious larger-scaled flavors are unusually refined for Valmur before concluding in a driving, bone-dry and hugely long finale. This is a big but impeccably well-balanced effort that should easily repay 12 to 15 years of cellaring. In short, this is seriously good.Inc. GSTSG$1,765.69 -

Aromas of citrus oil, fresh bread, peach and apple blossom introduce the 2018 Petit Chablis, a medium-bodied, ample and giving wine with lively acids and chalky grip on the finish. Bottled predominantly in magnum, I suspect its capacity to age may surprise.Inc. GSTSG$2,315.60
