2020 DOMAINE FRANCOIS RAVENEAU Chablis Grand Cru Blanchots

The Blanchots vineyard is one of the most unique Grand Crus in Chablis, characterized by its steep eastern exposure and high content of white clay. This specific terroir allows for a slower ripening process, resulting in a wine of immense floral elegance and aromatic complexity. When handled by Raveneau, Blanchots transcends the typical power of Grand Cru Chablis, offering instead a profound, crystalline purity. The 2020 vintage is hailed for its classicism and immense aging potential. At Domaine Raveneau, the Blanchots is treated with the utmost reverence, undergoing fermentation and aging in small, neutral oak barrels to build a multi-layered palate without ever masking the stony mineral core. This is a wine for the patient collector—a breathtaking expression of one of the world's most sought-after white wine producers at the peak of their craft.
