beautiful youthful wine right now. Precise, rich and expansive on the palate, classic raveneau. Still needed a hour or so to really flesh out but boy was it delicious. I guessed in the 2000s for age, was so far off.

(François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre) Light medium golden yellow color; lovely buttery, slightly oily, white flower nose; tasty, medium-bodied, oily textured, lemon, baked lemon, almond oil, mineral palate, that kept opening further in the hour-plus it sat in the glass; medium-plus finish

Friday after Thanksgiving II (Palm Beach Gardens, FL): Chalky, firm, with light citrus notes. Very acidic - almost austere and consistent with the vintage.

Friday after Thanksgiving (FAT) (Palm Beach Gardens FL): Tasting, brief note. Slightly musty start, then simple. Much better than most 1993 1ers at this age. Good components but slightly awkward.
