Domaine François Raveneau Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2010

$239

Raveneau's 2010 Chablis Butteaux is beautifully expressive on the bouquet, where layers of petrol, smoke and melted rocks fuse together with notable elegance. The Butteaux is a wine of all dimensions; it is at once vertical and horizontal, with fabulous purity and exceptional overall balance. This is one of the larger-scaled 2010s here. In many ways it encapsulates the personality of the vintage... eRobertParker.com (Antonio Galloni)

I loved this wine when I first tasted it nearly a decade ago. Still magnificent; fresh, vibrant and full of life!

A gorgeous lifted nose with sweet white flowers, limestone, a hint of lime. Rich and sweet on the palate. Great balance and purity

Raveneau Butteaux 2010 is in such a great place. It actually requires very little air to get going. It’s quick to show off its waxy yellow fruit, oyster shell minerality and amazing purity and tension.

Very Raveneau... a wonderful and precise nose with lifted limestone and steely notes. Then oyster shells and a gradually evolving palate. For Raveneau this is positively lush. Really good stuff- precise but sexy.

Aging slowly with laser-like acidity and salinity. Would love to revisit in 10-15 years

More tension than family reunion during the holidays. Crisp orchard fruit with subtle caramels and cream and a rigid spine of stones that commands attention.
