Mar 26th, 2022Super poised and pretty. Lanolin, honeyed notes, white flowers, chalk. Great midpalate with a hint of sweetness, mint, slate. Gorgeously lush for Raveneau.

Feb 11th, 2022A beautiful nose. Oyster shells yellow fruit. This is intense and still quite tightly wound. Very good stuff. In a few years this will be amazing

Apr 9th, 20215 hour decant, sushi BYO. Was bought in Champagne in the fall of 2019. Love the crystalline minerality and nerve of the vintage. Rounded with great concentration and purity. Lots of upside to age.

Sep 20th, 2020Limpid lime green with straw color. A cool precise nose, saltiness, flint, lemon, floral notes. Very lucid and quite intense but light and defined. Very good

Apr 18th, 2020This has less air. Very tense and dense. Almost syrupy in its tight, tart fruit. Really delicious and packed. Alongside the 10, a significantly tighter and younger wine but that may be the lack of air. Lemon, lime, sizzling acidity and great tension. Amazing stuff with a long life ahead.

Mar 7th, 2020Raveneau study! Nose was floral and saline, with intense lemon and pear notes, touched gently by wood. Crystalline, focused, and more concentrated than the 13' Foret on the palate, Raveneau's MdT is always so solid in their line-up. Long and mineral finish. Still hiding some depth as it got better with air, so will definitely benefit with more cellaring.
