Raveneau Chablis 2021

92 points Andy Howard, MW (Decanter): "From two plots on the left bank near Vaillons, Montmains, with just under 1ha. The majority of the vines were plated in the early 2000's, although some are a lot older. The Raveneau Chablis shows very good richness, combined with ripeness of peach and pear fruit, all kept fresh by lingering citric acidity. Ageing in oak has certainly rounded off the corners of 2021's acidity, leaving a glossy, luxurious palate feel with a fine, mineral finish. Drinking Window: 2024-2028. (10/17/22)"

92 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Chablis 2021 is marked by a touch of pastry on opening, giving a feeling of richness. A sweetness that takes shape through a note of exotic fruit, but also through its ample flesh. (2024)"

91 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "I always love the Raveneau family’s Chablis villages bottling and the 2021 version is simply outstanding. The bouquet is already quite beautiful, wafting from the glass in a blend of pear, lemon, a nice touch of anise, chalky soil tones, blood orange and a topnote of citrus peel. On the palate the wine is pure, precise and full-bodied, with a fine core of fruit, electric acidity, lovely soil signature and superb backend energy on the long, complex and impeccably balanced finish. 2023-2045. (Nov/Dec 2022)"

90 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 1.1 ha of vines situated near Montmains and Forêts). Hints of wood and menthol suffuse the ripe yet still cool and airy aromas of iodine, lemon-lime, shellfish and Granny Smith apples. The delicious and nicely concentrated medium-bodied flavors possess a seductive texture while exhibiting excellent persistence on the moderately dry and balanced finale. This is quite good for its level and worth checking out. Drink: 2026+. (Aug 2023)"
