Domaine Francois Raveneau

Foret 1er Chablis 10 2010

The 2010 Francois Raveneau Chablis Premier Cru Foret is a legendary expression of one of the greatest white Burgundy vintages in history. Raveneau is the undisputed master of Chablis and his Foret bottling is prized for its intense stony character. The 2010 growing season provided the perfect conditions for this terroir to excel offering high acidity and incredible structural focus. The nose is a classic profile of lemon curd crushed sea shells and white flowers. On the palate the wine is dense and vertical with a piercing mineral energy that defines the Foret vineyard. Its texture is oily yet chiseled with a finish that echoes with saline tension. This bottle is a reference point for Chablis purity and remains a benchmark for serious collectors worldwide.
