Reviewed November 2019The 2013 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux is a beauty that’s drinking great today. Plenty of orchard fruits, caramelized citrus, quince, toasted nuts, and a kiss of charcoal and scorched earth all make an appearance on the nose, and it hits the palate with plenty of richness and depth that turns more salty and mineral-laced on the finish. It opens up beautifully with time in the glass and is a rich, powerful Chablis to enjoy any time over the coming 10-15 years.

Domaine Raveneau 2013 Butteaux is just starting to drink well. The bouquet is starting to blossom, offering up scents of lemon, apple, beeswax a touch of oyster shell, chalky soil tones and a topnote of citrus oil. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, crisp and focused, with impressive complexity and lovely cut and grip on the long finish. This has more classical minerality than is typical of the average 2013 Chablis. Lovely wine. 93+

Wine Advocate
The 2013 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux has a sensual nose with subtle hazelnut, smoke and almost resinous scents, verging on Riesling scents, that are beautifully defined. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry with pleasing, mouth-watering salinity, easing back toward the finish with Granny Smith apples and a healthy dash of lemongrass. I can imagine this changing a lot in bottle – it comes across as a mercurial Chablis Butteaux. (NM)

The 2013 Chablis Butteaux is one of the more reticent wines in the range, but it, too, is quite open for a young Raveneau. Bright citrus, smoke, slate, lime and dried herbs all add nuance as this finely sculpted, chiseled Chablis shows off its considerable personality. (AG)
