Wow, this bottle showing amazingly open for business immediately (though I lost the battle to extract the cork fully!!). I’ve always thought that of the 3 Raveneau Grand Crus, Blanchot has consistently shown the most ripe tropical fruit undertones (of course measured by Chablis standards), whereas Clos is more intensely mineral and Valmur somewhere in between, and this bottle fits that pattern. From a little riper Chablis vintage (13.5% vs. more usual 12.5-13% ABV), this bottle is richly fruited, with plenty of acidity and some subtle minerality,, with a very, very long, lingering finish, absolutely a great Raveneau Blanchot!! — a day ago

Somehow whenever I know that I am drinking a wine to young I see @David T scolding me! I do highly respect his insights and the plan was to wait three more years!
But the realization that I was going to need to sacrifice a bottle; that I can Hopefully replace came late this afternoon.
Most likely we are going to be saying goodbye to our hyperthyroidism kitty " Patience" tomorrow. It has been a long battle and she would have turned 15 July 31st. So some self medicating is warranted! 😓.
Although this wine is delicious even young! Ripe Bing Cherries...licorice...bubble gum..tea leaves and moist forest floor! Delicious wine! I will try to obtain another bottle and let it age longer! — 5 years ago

"A bright, dry berry flavor and warm, velvety mouthfeel while forgoing any chemical herbicides. The result is a wine with a complex, battle hardened nose of dark cherry and cacao, bright and spicy on the palate, and warm in the mouth."
"A handmade natural wine"
Beautiful wine and one of my favorites of the year. — 3 years ago

This estate owes its name to Connetable Talbot, the English general & governor of the province of Guyenne who was defeated at the famous Battle of Castillon in 1453. Aromas of sweet black fruits with floral and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry & blueberry with cacao and tobacco spice, on a well balanced frame. Fine rustic tannins, long savory ending with fruit, spice and cedar character. — 3 years ago

@Jason and Jennie in your neighborhood tonight before heading down to Bandon Dunes for four days of golf. Dropped by the storefront for Battle Creek. Nice Pinots and great people! Nose is really great on this. — 4 years ago
