TN: 2007 François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux

  • 2007 François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux - France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru (4/9/2011)
    My this was good! A classic Chablis in every sense of the word. Salty, savoury, seashell and flint scents danced alongside white fruit scents in an entrancing nose. In the mouth, the wine showed serious palate-staining intensity wed to precise definition and great 2007 freshness and focus. There was the white fruit picked up on the nose, some creaminess and sweet lemons as the wine pulled away in a powerful and super long finish. Brilliant stuff. (93 pts.)

Nice to hear F. Raveneau 2007 is behaving well.

Thank for posting.

The 2008 Louis Michel VV of this wine is excellent, too. My white of the year so far.

Great wine Paul, thanks for the note.
Best Regards
