95 / 100"Perhaps surprisingly, there is no separate Chapelot in 2022. A full lemon colour, with a nose which is much more backward. The fruit is very evenly balanced across the palate, arriving in little waves, with a vast aftertaste. Very classical, all the constituent parts together. Drink from 2027-2036. - 93-95 Points."

Tasting Notes
The 2022 Domaine François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre showcases the estate’s reputation as Chablis’ gold standard. Sourced from the prestigious Montée de Tonnerre vineyard, often likened to a Grand Cru, the wine benefits from Kimmeridgian limestone soils and ideal south-facing slopes. The third generation of the Raveneau family continues the legacy of meticulous winemaking, focusing on precise vineyard care and neutral oak aging. The 2022 vintage is a refined expression, with bright citrus notes, crisp acidity, and a distinctive saline edge, offering excellent aging potential for collectors.
