May 1, 2024 - Ultima bottiglia purtroppo e un’altra bellissima performance. Naso alpino, con bellissimi fiori e una spruzzata di menta che lo rende freschissimo, balsamico a tratti. Poi limone, mela, the. Bocca lunga, piena, anche larga. Grande vino.

January 11, 2024 - At first, this seemed quite mature and perhaps past its best with a darkish yellow color and softer palate. However, after 2 hours of air it blossomed and the finish became so complex and the texture beguiling. Note to self; decant all Raveneau wines!

December 22, 2023 - Strong lemon colour.
Gentle white flowers, a hint of honey, citrus fruits.
Medium weight, refined and precise. Flavours are pure citrus and honeysuckle with good intensity. Lovely rich minerality, with a long spicy finish. Very fresh, excellent acidity. Delicious. -

December 1, 2023 - Robinson wine dinner at mad cap. An incredible example the potential of aged Chardonnay. Alluring flinty nose that is so indicative of Raveneau. Fruit singing and acid all there. One of the most consistently delicious white wines in the world.
