Built on Chardonnay and shaped by the precision of the Blanchot vineyard, it combines Grand Cru depth with Raveneau’s hallmark mineral drive, making it a compelling bottle for collectors and lovers of finely evolved white Burgundy.

The nose opens with ripe citrus, white flowers, and a distinct chalky, lightly petroleum-tinged complexity, all lifted by a cool mineral edge. On the palate, it is concentrated and almost oily in texture, yet held together by razor-sharp acidity and a long, saline finish. Notes of grapefruit, stone fruit, and crushed rock linger with impressive intensity, and while it is drinking well now, it still has the structure to evolve gracefully for several more years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlanchot is one of Chablis’ Grand Cru climats, known for its fine, elegant profile and strong mineral expression, with the cooler limestone-rich soils contributing to the wine’s tension and precision. Domaine Raveneau is known for extremely low yields and meticulous vineyard work, with hand harvesting used to preserve fruit quality at the point of optimum ripeness. Fermentation and élevage are traditionally handled with great care to retain freshness, depth, and the site’s unmistakable saline character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs naturally with refined seafood dishes such as oysters, scallops, lobster, turbot, or crab, as well as roast poultry in creamy sauces and elegant dishes with mushrooms or fresh herbs. Serve it at around 10–12°C to allow the aromatics and texture to unfold. Decanting is optional but can be beneficial for this mature vintage if you want to soften its restraint and open up the complex tertiary notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuottaja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine Raveneau is one of the most celebrated producers in Chablis, with a reputation built on exceptional site expression, tiny production, and remarkable aging potential.
