TN: 2018 François Raveneau Chablis (France, Burgundy, Chablis)

  • 2018 François Raveneau Chablis - France, Burgundy, Chablis (5/15/2022)
    Absolutely LOVE the Rav…of course I’d drink the GC and PC all day long if I could…hell, give me the Petit any day…the only prob is the $$$…even the Village is getting out there! This 18 is on the richer side…little more tropical fruits and less Raveneau wax dry extract…BUT…still posses the magic, and is KILLER Chablis any way you cut it! Yes riper stone fruits…candied lemon rind…little grilled pineapple…yet ALL Raveneau in subtlety…sea air, crushed oyster shell, wax, spearmint…wonderful flowers florals…brisk sea air…crushed limestone chalkiness…plenty of energy…and tasty as all get out! Drink it ALL DAY LONG! (94 pts.)

nice note. I see the oyster shells in the background.

Some smelly feet sulphur notes coming through.

“Sea air” seems pretty far-fetched.

Wow. Around £230 a bottle, including VAT, for the ‘18 Village.

Haha…you guys are funny! I also got a whiff of lobster roll on the nose…

Living well, Buzz, thanks for posting the TN and the pics. I’m hungry now.
