1999 Domaine Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru "Butteaux"

Bid on this bottle of 1999 Domaine Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru "Butteaux" (91BH). Burghound: "(with thanks to Rebecca Rapaszky). As is often the case with Butteaux it has aged extremely well and while the term youthful wouldn't quite be accurate, this does still possess good freshness on the now fully mature aromas of shellfish, iodine and pear where there are no elements of sous-bois or truffle present. There is good richness and reasonably good verve to the delicious, round and solidly complex flavors that possess fine length. While in no danger of falling off a cliff any time soon this has reached its peak and I would be inclined to drink this up over the next 5 years or so." (03/2016)
