Bid on this bottle of 1996 Domaine Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru "Vaillons" ((90-93RP)). Wine Advocate: "The smoke and charred oak scented Chablis Vaillons possesses unreal definition of tangy, flinty, and minerally flavors in its medium-to-full-bodied, and crisp personality. Powerful, strident and superbly-balanced, it needs to be cellared until at least 2003, and will easily hold its peak through 2009. The rating, with the range of scores in parentheses, indicates the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. (PR)" (02/1998)

Included in this lot · 1 bottle

Provenance: Purchased from a reputable source and stored in a temparature-controlled wine storage facility until shipped to K&L via refrigerated freight.

Notes

On the left bank of the Serein, Vaillons is one of Chablis' premier cru vineyards, rooted in the region's characteristic Kimmeridgian limestone and marl. Raveneau's traditional approach includes hand harvesting and maturation in older oak barrels rather than an emphasis on new oak.
