Description
Discover the 2022 Domaine Francois Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Forêt – an exquisite Burgundian Chardonnay showcasing premier cru precision from France’s iconic limestone terroir. This highly acclaimed vintage (scoring 90-94+ across top critics) reveals crystalline purity with vibrant layers of crisp green apple, ripe orchard fruits, and signature Chablis minerality.
Expect a beautifully structured white wine where flinty notes intertwine with citrus zest and subtle white florals. The palate balances medium-bodied richness with racy acidity, offering textural complexity without oak dominance – just discreet barrel influence enhancing its expression. Critics highlight its satiny texture, mouthwatering salinity, and remarkable aging potential (best from 2027-2034+).
Sourced from Raveneau’s prized amphitheatre plot in Forêts with deeper clay-limestone soils, this 13% alcohol Chablis presents exceptional concentration beneath its elegant restraint. Perfect for collectors seeking age-worthy Burgundy or enthusiasts exploring sophisticated food wines – pair beautifully with oysters, grilled seafood, or creamy poultry dishes.
