September 17, 2023 - Wow, how gorgeously mature yet so powerful and fresh. The green apple fruit is still present and round, with a powerful mineral undercurrent, culminating in a long mineral, citrus finish. Unbelievably powerful and seamless.

September 17, 2023 - Pausing for the Cause Fundraiser and Dinner (Obelix - Chicago IL): Small glass, what a treat. Lots of lemon, ranging from fresh to custard with an intense richness and brightness.

September 2, 2021 - Decanted for 1 hour. Full yellow color. Lemon, iodine and light sea brine on the nose. The palate is on point, crisp, light and lemon infused with a bit of sweetness and a spicy drying element on the finish. Not a lot of complexity, but the balance between acidity and sweetness is perfect. Really good.

May 24, 2019 - Solid, but a bit more linear and without the complexity of other '02 Raveneau premier crus. Some rocky and saline notes on the finish. 92-93

September 27, 2018 - Had this at the Charleston off-line for Burgundy night.
This was part of the first Burgundy flight of the night, served along side the 2005 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos
This was a few years older than the Dauvissat and had a darker, richer color . Another beautiful wine with complex flavors of lemon, orange peel, vanilla, saline and chalk. Another choice that worked well with seafood.1 person found this helpful Comment
