0.75L
Intensity
Produced by a domain whose wines are very difficult to find - except here at iDealwine ;-) - this is an excellent Chablis with an indulgent bouquet, a powerful palate and a long, saline finish.

Lot presentation
Chablis Grand Cru Clos Raveneau (Domaine) 1997
The wine
Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is an extremely distinguished Chablis, with a complex nose focused on aromas of white-fleshed fruit and toast and notes of honey. Although substantial with great richness, it does not lack any freshness and on the palate this wine has a great mineral quality with saline notes. A truly splendid wine.
About the Producer Raveneau
Led by traditional methods (manual harvesting and controlled yields), Domaine Raveneau is today one of the most sought-after names of the Chablis appellation. The vineyard covers 7.5 hectares, divided into five premier crus and three grands crus. Jean-Marie and Bernard Raveneau, the current owners, maintain the desire for perfection that has typified the maison since its origins: for example, they prefer to harvest early to ensure a good level of natural acidity, even to chaptalise rather than picking an over-matured fruit. In three generations, ownership has risen to a legendary rank: its worldwide reputation means that the wines are practically unobtainable, especially since the domaine no longer accepts new customers, all its harvest being reserved in advance. The fine wines are consistently harmonious, with superb minerality thanks to a honeyed touch due to élevage in wood. These wines are popular worldwide.
