92 points Tim Atkin, MW.

91 points Jasper Morris, MW: "One plot is in Valvent opposite 1er cru Epinottes, the other opposite Forêts. There is more yellow in the colour here than the Petit Chablis, with an exceptional intensity that makes it almost hard to taste. Immaculate youthful bitterness and great length. (May 2019)"

90-91 points James Suckling: "This shows some exotic fruit with apricots and green mangoes, as well as peaches. The palate is super sturdy, very fleshy and very rich with such plush, peach and nectarine flavors and a very drinkable feel already. Drink on release. (8/14/19)"

90+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The Raveneaus’ 2018 Chablis villages is bright and juicy in personality, delivering a fine and nicely reserved aromatic constellation of apple, lemon, chalky minerality, white flowers and just a hint of the beeswax to come. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and shows off fine mid-palate depth, with good focus and grip, impressive backend mineral drive and a bright harness of acidity adding lift and clarity on the finish. A lovely example in the making. 2021-2040. (Nov/Dec 2019)"

90 ponts and 'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from vines near Montmains). Here too there is good freshness to the slightly riper aromas of grapefruit, quinine and sea breeze. The overtly rich and lush medium-bodied flavors possess an opulent mouthfeel along with a lovely texture while offering markedly better complexity on the balanced and lingering finish. This is really quite pretty and a wine that should amply reward mid-term cellaring. Drink: 2025+. (Nov 2020)"
