Francois Raveneau Chablis Valmur 2015
Tasting Note
'The Raveneau family’s 2015 Valmur is a ripe and very refined wine, with the synthesis of the vintage’s generous fruit and the cru’s fine mineral drive beautifully entwined. The nose wafts from the glass in a gregarious mix of apple, pear, paraffin, chalky minerality and just a whisper of vanilla in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and quite plush on the attack, with an excellent core of fruit, fine soil signature, bright acids and excellent length and grip on the focused finish. There is a lovely veneer of puppy fat here, but my gut instinct is that this wine will start to show a firmer structural chassis after bottling and probably will want a few years in the cellar before drinking.'
