January 14, 2024 - Fantastic chablis--complex, fresh and vibrant, mineral, very intense and concentrated, really nice. It gave the Dauvissat Les Clos a run for its money. Unbelievably good with mushroom risotto. EWG retrospective tasting dinner at Conrad's

February 3, 2023 - Needed a decant, probably best to lay these away for a few more years but the potential is significant. Eventually it developed with air...

May 14, 2022 - Ahh, en nese til å dø for. Krystallklar hvit frukt, mineralitetsdrevet. Kjølig.
Nydelig smakskurve. En intens men balansert syre bærer vinen elegant fra anslag til finish.
Mer imponerende nå enn når jeg har smakt den før. Har et langt liv foran seg. -

August 6, 2021 - Dauvissat plus X Tasting (Freiheit Vinothek, Ulm, Germany): *** all wines tasted blind ***
Glass: Zalto Bordeaux
Clear, medium golden color. Beautiful deep and complex nose with lots of ripe yellow fruit, stony mineral notes and herbs.
On the palate a bit musty notes, interesting orange peel and a piercing mineral core. Very good balance and a wonderful texture and structure. Very long. 92-93 -

July 2, 2021 - Nez typique Raveneau sur le fruit avec une richesse qu'on retrouve peu sur les autres grands producteurs de cette commune. La bouche suit sur l'amplitude, un vin davantage large et ample que long et ciselé. La finale déçoit un peu en tombant à plat, c'est malheureusement fréquent avec ce 1er toujours moins bien réussi chez Raveneau. 91
