The 2012 vintage in Chablis was considered exceptional, producing wines with great concentration and aging potential. Raveneau's Chablis Montmains 1er Cru 2012 is a refined and mineral-driven Chardonnay from a site planted on Kimmeridgian marl and clay soils. With age, this wine shows depth, integration, and a delicate, layered profile. Early tasting notes described it as a bit austere and holding back its personality, but with time, it reveals a sublime bouquet with hints of praline, almond, and minerals. Other notes include citrus peel, white peach, white pepper, slate, sea foam, oyster shell, frozen minerals, and pears. The palate is precise and layered, with a delicate structure supported by a persistent mineral backbone, offering a wonderful floral lift and balanced acidity. It's known for its finesse and floral character, developing additional complexity and harmony with age. 【Most recognized Chablis producer in Burgundy】
