Discover Domaine François Raveneau’s exceptional 2022 Chablis Les Butteaux Premier Cru Chardonnay—a masterpiece from Burgundy’s windswept slopes. Crafted by one of Chablis’s most revered estates, this wine embodies precision and elegance, offering a rare glimpse into Burgundy’s terroir-driven excellence.

Award-Winning Complexity
This Premier Cru has earned stellar acclaim with scores ranging from 92-95 points across leading critics. Tim Atkin praises its “high-toned acidity” and mineral-driven palate, while Burghound highlights its “powerful concentration” and aging potential. Each sip reveals a harmonious blend of citrus brightness (key lime, pomelo) and saline minerality, underscored by hints of spice and oak-aged creaminess.

Terroir & Tradition
Planted on Butteaux’s windy slopes in 40+ year-old vines, this wine captures Chablis’s signature tension between tension and texture. The maritime influence shines through in marine iodine notes and briny finish—a hallmark of Raveneau’s meticulous craftsmanship. Its steely structure suggests cellaring potential; Burghound recommends aging for 12-15 years to unlock its full complexity.

Perfect Pairing Potential
With its crisp acidity and mineral backbone, this Chardonnay pairs impeccably with seafood—think oysters Rockefeller or Dover sole meunière. Its creamy texture also complements rich cheeses like Comté or aged Gouda. Whether enjoyed now or aged for future enjoyment, it’s a standout choice for Burgundy enthusiasts seeking authenticity and depth.
