96 / 100"The 2022 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur is brilliant, mingling aromas of citrus oil, fresh mint and white flowers with notions of iodine and wet stones in a complex bouquet, followed by a full-bodied, deep and layered palate that's cool and racy, defying the vintage, and concluding with a long, saline finish. - William Kelley"

"Pale colour with a light green tint, less floral and more on the fruit, but certainly with a feeling that there is much more to reveal. All about the white fruit with a sumptuous weight that emerges at the back, a little point of acidity. Perfect balance at the finish, very different in shape from Blanchot. Drink from 2030-2040+. - 94-96 Points."

Tasting Notes
Sourced from the prestigious Valmur vineyard, known for its mineral-rich Kimmeridgian limestone soils, this Grand Cru wine offers exceptional complexity, power, and finesse. Managed by the third generation, the Raveneau family upholds a legacy of meticulous vineyard care and precise winemaking. The 2022 vintage combines vibrant acidity, concentrated citrus and orchard fruit flavors, and a refined flinty minerality, promising significant aging potential and evolving elegance over time.
