Thursday, May 2, 2019 - Dinner at PST (Chicago, IL): Absolutely gorgeous bottle of Raveneau. I feel like I've been a bit down on the wines of late, but this is one that brings me back to the fold. The nose has a slight hint of reduction that blows off quickly, leaving you with this beautiful expression of chardonnay that encapsulates all the good things of Chablis and the stylization of the house. A mild hint of lemon curd, a lovely dose of salinity, plenty of acid and minerals, with a roundness that balances out all of the leaner elements. It's definitely a big wine, as it should be. And I have to trot out my worn out Sir Mix-A-Lot line: I like big Butteaux and I cannot lie.
