"From vines grown on the plateau above Les Clos, this is a great introduction to the Raveneau style, showing a lovely crystalline purity on the nose. The palate has a light touch of honey as this wine, like all others in the range, is matured in older wooden vessels. Raveneau's Petit Chablis is a relatively new addition, with the vines planted in 2010 and the first vintage being 2014. What a great place to start."

"Raveneau's 2020 Petit Chablis is the domaine's finest rendition of this comparative newcomer to the portfolio—from vines on the plateau above Les Clos—to date. Offering up aromas of pear, orange zest, freshly baked bread and hazelnut, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and chalky, with good depth and tension, concluding with a saline finish. As usual, it's mostly bottled in magnum. Drink: 2021-2040. (Jul 2022)"

"It is probably a bit more than ten years since the Petit Chablis made its debut in the Raveneau family’s lineup of wines and this has been a tremendous value since its very first vintage. The 2020 is again a lovely wine in the making, offering up a bright and complex bouquet of apple, fresh-squeezed lemon, chalky minerality, spring flowers and just a touch of straw in the upper register. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and crisp, with a very good core of fruit this year, lovely mineral drive, bright acids and impeccable balance on the long, focused and complex finish. A lovely bottle. 2022-2040. (Nov/Dec 2021)"
