  PNP. Medium yellow. Sweet powdered lemon candy, iodine and broth on the nose. The palate is full and deep, sweet Meyer lemon fruit and an open knit texture that is enjoyable but lacks tension and acidity; not on par with the 08 Valmur.

  I tasted this bottle during a Chablis night at Sushi Shinkai in Seoul, together with Christian Moreau's Les Clos, William Fevre's Les Clos, and Vincent Dauvissat's Les Clos. As expected and without a doubt, Francois Raveneau's Clos was the final boss and stood out better than others. I loved the finest Chablis poised balance of nose and palate. Alas, its price tag is now at an insane level, I missed the time when the Raveneau was approachable.

  Too young and too intense. Concentrated stone and minerality. Less sharpness in view of the ripe vintage but substantial. 93+

  A Trio of Petrus: Pure, clean, and a beautiful Raveneau Clos. It really had that something special.

  Good focus for the vintage. Clearly Clos but did not have the length one can find in better vintages
