Bid on this 2-bottle lot of 2018 Domaine Francois Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru "Chapelot" (93BH, 93JG). Burghound: " This is restrained to the point of being almost mute and it requires aggressive swirling to coax notes of airy mineral reduction, citrus rind and plenty of seashore nuances to reveal themselves. The slightly richer and rounder flavors possess somewhat finer texture though at the expense of less minerality and detail on the clean and bone-dry bitter lemon-infused finale that isn't quite as complex. Even so, this is still excellent.

Tasted from a new 400 litre barrel. Clear bright colour with a green tint. There is no wood effect yet on the nose. This has the sunshine feel, with peaches at the back, very obviously Right Bank in style, yet with excellent grip. Tasted from older wood (228l barrel), it was more closed in nose, leaner on the palate, more austere until the last taste.

The 2018 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru offers striking precision in its combination of density, richness and energy. Absolutely nothing stands out in a wine that truly dazzles from the very first taste. Citrus, slate, white pepper, mint and crushed rocks all race out of the glass as the aromatics come alive with a bit of air. The Vaillons is one of the more complete wines among the 1er Crus in this range. (AG)
