Domaine François Raveneau
Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay
Beautifully balanced. Lime, stone, oyster shells. Salinity. On the palate cool green apple, hints of melon, limestone. A beautiful tart sour notes on the finish. A lovely haunting finish. In a very good place right now

Apr 1st, 2023Light straw color. Floral nose with lemon and stone. Tropical. Rich and fat in the mouth. The warm year vintage is evident as this comes across a bit heated with its fruit. This should improve as it sheds its baby fat. Will be watching where the 06s from here.

Apr 26th, 2018Synonymous with great Chablis meaning great Chardonnay and more importantly wines that are not oxydative in the least; and that's saying something in 2006!

Apr 23rd, 20152006 Raveneau Chablis are sensational Chardonnays with all the intense minerality and flintiness one expects from them--a real triumph from an otherwise uneven vintage for white Burgundy.

Nov 19th, 2016Really good. White flowers minerality. Very raveneau. A touch of lemon, lychee and lime with great stony minerality. A bit shorter on the finish than the valmur a but very in place. Excellent
