Domaine François Raveneau Chablis Montée de Tonnerre Premier Cru 2019

Reviews

95 - Allen Meadows' Burghound -

A discreet, even timid nose speaks of markedly cool, airy and admirably pure aromas of high-toned floral wisps, iodine and plenty of oyster shell and tidal pool nuances that are trimmed in just enough wood to mention. The racy, mineral-driven and ultra-refined middle weight flavors possess the finest and most delicate texture in the entire range, all wrapped in a strikingly long and strikingly layered finale. This is textbook MdT and a genuine knockout.

94 - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -

Unwinding in the glass with aromas of citrus zest, nutmeg, fresh hazelnuts and white flowers, framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction, the 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with a ripe and fleshy core of fruit that's underpinned by racy acids and chalky structure. As in 2020, the Montée de Tonnerre is something of a baby Clos.

93 - Vinous -

The 2019 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru presents an intense bouquet of fresh mint, dill and crushed stone aromas. The palate is very concentrated, dense and weighty, with a slightly more viscous texture than the Butteaux. Notes of dried honey, stem ginger and a pinch of white pepper appear on the finish. This big, bold Montée de Tonnerre is for the long term.

The 2019 is a more generous, open-knit expression of Montée de Tonnerre, balancing ripe citrus and white peach with the vineyard’s hallmark mineral spine. It’s a beautifully layered wine, where sun-kissed fruit and subtle lees notes mingle with sea breeze freshness. Already showing incredible charm, this vintage offers earlier drinking appeal while maintaining Raveneau’s signature elegance and depth.

About The Producer

François Raveneau established the domaine in 1948 by combining vineyards that he had purchased with vineyards owned by the family of his wife, who was part of the Dauvissat wine family. The wines are a rare find—exceptional because the vineyard holdings are almost entirely made of grand cru and premier cru fruit.
