Description
Domaine François Raveneau Petit Chablis 2018 1.5L
This is the fifth vintage of Petit Chablis Raveneau. Though planted only in 2010, this young vine fruit already makes very grown-up wine. Hailing from just above the Vaudésir Grand Cru, the terroir (just under a hectare) is flat, windy and rocky. This vinous 2018 shows an impressive lanolin-like smoothness and supple concentration on the attack that is nicely contrasted by a waxy texture on the back palate. Mirabelles and flax linger into the finish. I can’t imagine that I’d call this a Petit Chablis if I tasted it blind.
