Raveneau Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2016

Domaine Raveneau’s Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2016 is a superb expression of one of Burgundy’s most celebrated sites, showing the precision, depth, and mineral drive that have made Raveneau a benchmark for the region. From a demanding vintage marked by frost and drought, this wine stands out for its concentration, tension, and remarkable balance, capturing both the power of Valmur and the estate’s uncompromising craftsmanship.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, Valmur 2016 shows a bright, luminous golden hue, hinting at its maturity without losing freshness. The nose opens with honey-glazed apricot, ripe citrus, chalky mineral notes, and a subtle touch of exotic spice, all layered with the kind of complexity that only deepens with time. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and beautifully textured, with a silky attack, vibrant acidity, and a pronounced saline finish that gives it energy and precision. There is both richness and finesse here, and while it is already highly expressive, it has the structure and balance to age gracefully into the mid-2030s and beyond.

Viininvalmistus
The Valmur Grand Cru vineyard lies in one of Chablis’ most distinguished limestone-rich slopes, where the classic Kimmeridgian terroir gives Chardonnay its signature mineral clarity and tension. Raveneau is known for rigorous selection and meticulous vineyard work, and in a challenging vintage like 2016, that discipline was crucial in preserving concentration and purity. The winemaking remains traditionally focused, allowing the vineyard’s character to lead, with vinification designed to maintain precision, depth, and aging potential.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs beautifully with shellfish, lobster, scallops, roasted poultry, turbot, and rich dishes with beurre blanc or cream-based sauces. It should be served cool, ideally around 10–12°C, to preserve its freshness and aromatic detail. Decanting is optional but can be beneficial if the bottle is still youthful or has been stored for a long time, helping the wine open more fully in the glass.
