"As expected with Montée de Tonnerre, there are great reserves of power and energy here. Concentrated, fine and with great purity, oak adds subtle extra dimensions in the background. Lovely acidity and a touch of spice to finish. Great class. Raveneau's Montée de Tonnerre is over 3ha in area, accounting for around 1/3 of the estates holdings. Around 1.8ha are located on the mid-slopes of Chapelot. with 1.2ha at higher altitude in Pied d'Aloup which adds additional freshness and vivacity."

"The 2021 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru, of which half comprises fruit from the Chapelots climate, has a delightful oyster shell-infused bouquet that blossoms in the glass - citrus peel intermixed with orange zest. The palate is very well-balanced, with a little more weight and concentration than the Butteaux. It is taut and linear, with a lack of salinity on the finish. Excellent."
Alcohol: 13%
