The 2010 Chablis 1er Cru Chapelot is showing beautifully, and while the wine is still some years away from maturity, it is already quite striking, offering up a pretty bouquet of white flowers, citrus oil, fresh peach and honeycomb. The medium to full-bodied palate is strikingly satiny and elegant, with a broad and delicately textural attack that segues into a deep core and a long, racy finish. Broader and suppler than the regular Montée de Tonnerre, the Chapelot is defined by its grace and textural integration.

Bursting with aromas of citrus oil, green apple, fresh bread, honeycomb and white flowers, the 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Chapelot is medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, with a satiny attack that segues into a fleshy core of fruit, framed by bright acids and concluding with a long, saline finish.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The 2011 Chablis Chapelot 1er Cru from Raveneau has a rather austere bouquet, nicely defined with subtle mineral tones, but it needs more vigor and chutzpah. The palate is well balanced with grilled walnut on the entry, touches of bitter lemon and a pleasing, quite edgy finish. This did not show quite as well as it could on the day.

Fermented and aged in one- and two- year-old barrels, the 2004 Chablis Chapelot is the first Raveneau wine I’ve encountered that was significantly marked by wood. Its oaky, smoky mineral aromas lead to a fresh personality laden with spiced oak flavors. This light to medium-bodied effort tightens in the finish on zesty acidity. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. The Raveneau brothers were in the process of bottling their 2004s when I visited the estate in late April, 2006. “This is a vintage of pleasure, the 2004s are simple wines, they do not have a powerful constitution,” said Bernard Raveneau, who concentrates on vineyard work and handles the vinifications. (His brother Francois deals with all the tractor work as well as the administrative issues.) He reiterated what I’d heard in all of Burgundy’s cellars, that the yields had gotten totally out of control during the rain-plagued month of August. “We harvested 70 hectoliters per hectare on average across the entire estate. We’ve never seen such a plethoric vintage!” Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 524-1524
