March 20, 2024 - A bit waxy, but with that unique chablisien saline minerality and enough acid to keep things fresh and enjoyable. Very good.

May 6, 2018 - Impressively fresh with a soft, floral nose of mint, white flower, and sea breeze. Medium-light in body with flavors of orchard fruit showing persistence and saline minerality on the finish. Subtle and elegant, the 1999 Blanchot has all the hallmarks of the producer's best but none of the vintage's richness or ripeness. Drink in the next few years.

December 13, 2017 - Very fresh nose of spearmint, Arum lilies and mineral. It is rich and intense in the mouth, with great shape and loads of saline minerality.

July 28, 2017 - such a fresh bright bottle of raveneau, as if the vintage there's this lightness to the wine that's full of white flowers and lush soft orchard fruit. it's waxy but not rich and powerful, very compelling and easy to drink. Still needed about 2-3 hours to open up and expand on the mid palate, but when it did it was really delicious.

March 10, 2017 - 99/00/02. Crystalline, pale. Nice minerality. Surprisingly broad, round and rich. Long finish.
