Raveneau really nailed this vintage. A difficult growing season and minimal yields have nonetheless produced a stunning MDT, immensely generous, expressive and multidimensional wafting a floral, citrusy-spice inflicted bouquet layered in pastry cream and stony Chablisen minerality. The palate is magnificently textured, concentrated, long and voluptuous, slightly lower in acidity as 16’s can be, but still with plenty of power, tension and balance that belies the vintage norm. MDT is a tremendous success in 2016. Raveneau is king. 💛 — 3 days ago

Demi-sec. Pineapple, honey, lemon rind. Not what I usually look for in Chenin, but this is undeniably a good wine. Elegant, full, and with a finish that just won’t quit. — a month ago

Beautiful poise. Light and refined. Soft lemon. Rock pools, minerality, a hint of corn and yellow flowers. Intense but light and dancing on the palate. Great balance and long. Powerful but still subtle. — 5 days ago

Lemon and flinty aromas and flavors, great acidity, great complexity and depth, even at 35 years old, as I always say, Raveneau is singular, super long, lingering finish, great Chablis 1er Cru!!!
I am down to my last 18 bottles of 1988-1990 Raveneau, but these are incredible wines bought on release at criminally inexpensive prices (compared to today), but Francois made INCREDIBLE Chablis!!! — a month ago

Great producer & wine that is rich, racy on the palate with notes of citrus, pear, lots of mineral, saline, chalk & white flower — 19 days ago

So fresh under Diam. Most guessed that it was no more than 3 years old in our blind. Not the best Rav in my opinion. Obviously rich and ripe due to the vintage. I felt it could have used more relief. Thankfully it went remarkably well with some Comte. — a month ago
