Rich and explosive in the glass, the 2013 Chablis Blanchot races across the palate with gorgeous richness and pure intensity. White and yellow peach, spice, jasmine and lemon oil are some of the many notes that flesh out in this utterly captivating and expressive Chablis from Raveneau.

In much the same fashion as the Montée de Tonnerre, the floral character of the nose is quite prominent though the broad-ranging nose also displays notes of wet stone, pear, sea breeze and quinine. The delicious yet quite serious medium weight flavors possess excellent punch and drive on the mineral-driven, balanced and impressively persistent finale. This is more powerful than it usually is; indeed the descriptor robust would not be an exaggeration.Drink 2021+. - October 2014

Bright, pale yellow. Nose currently a bit blocked by sulfur. Quite closed on the palate, with stone fruit and menthol flavors showing less depth and early sweetness than the Montée de Tonnerre. A bit less fine-grained too. This is tricky to taste now and needs time in bottle to expand.
