Domaine François Raveneau Blanchot Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011

$289

...There is really lovely purity to the punchy, sappy and saline-infused flavors that possess a highly attractive mix of power and refinement, all wrapped in a lemony, driving, even explosive finish that is borderline painfully intense. This beautifully well-balanced effort will require up to a decade to arrive at its peak though it should be approachable young. Burghound.com

Another example of why Raveneau’s 2011’s are exceptional. Transcends the vintage. Pure, chalky, vinous and quite open.

A week after initial coravin access...seems to be even better now. Apple blossom, lime rind, minerals of days. It's buzzing like a PA system turned before the music starts playing. Legendary for sure

Like listen to opening whaling guitar riff of ACDC's thunderstruck from down a hallway. Precise and piercing. Wants many years
