Reviews 95 points Wine Advocate "The 2016 Chablis Grand Cru Clos is the most reserved wine in the cellar, slowly unfurling with notes of lemon oil, spring flowers and wet stones, without ever revealing the full expression of fruit that will come with some time in bottle. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and powerful, with the most concentration, texture and extract of any wine in the cellar, structured around a succulent but soft line of acidity, the finish lent lift by subtle but mouthwatering grip. This will age on its concentration more than its acids, but it should develop very well in bottle. (WK)" 97 points John Gilman "As so often seems to be the case chez Raveneau, the 2016 Clos is the most reserved and promising wine in the cellars this year. This too is absolutely classic in personality, offering up a youthfully complex bouquet of pear, lemon, flinty, chalky minerality, just a hint of anise and a potpourri of floral tones in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and shows off stunning mid-palate depth, with laser-like focus, great grip and a very long, precise and energetic finish... (JG)"
