Domaine François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 2016

Raveneau’s Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 2016 is a finely judged expression of one of Chablis’ most celebrated Premier Cru sites. From a demanding vintage, Domaine Raveneau has crafted a wine of poise and depth, combining citrus freshness, ripe pear and subtle floral nuance with the site’s signature saline, stony mineral character. It is a classic example of why Montée de Tonnerre is often spoken of as one of Chablis’ most complete terroirs.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, the wine shows a luminous pale gold hue, hinting at both its maturity and vitality. The nose is precise and layered, unfolding with citrus peel, ripe pear, white flowers and a pronounced crushed-stone mineral note, all carried by a quiet, measured intensity. The palate is textured and concentrated, yet always lifted by Raveneau’s hallmark acidity. There is a harmonious balance between generous fruit, a taut mineral spine and a long, slightly bitter citrus finish that adds definition and energy. Already beautifully expressive, it still has room to evolve further and should continue to develop gracefully through 2028.

Viininvalmistus
Montée de Tonnerre sits on Chablis’ classic Kimmeridgian limestone and marl, giving the wine its distinctly chalky, saline edge and impressive precision. While specific cellar details are not provided here, Raveneau is known for meticulous vineyard work and careful, traditional vinification that emphasizes purity, texture and the natural expression of the site.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs beautifully with oysters, scallops, poached lobster, seared turbot, fine sushi or poultry in a light cream sauce. Serve it chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to preserve its freshness and aromatic detail. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can help open the wine if it is served now.

Tuottaja
