Score 95/100 · Drink 2025-2032, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2026

Golden in hue but age-appropriate, the 1997 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru is a total delight. Exotic floral and tropical overtones lead into candied apricot, passion fruit, slate, crushed rocks, acacia and light honeyed tones. The 1997 is quite rich and oily but not at all heavy. Despite its age and obvious richness, it preserves plenty of the minerality that is such a Raveneau signature. Approaching its thirtieth birthday, the 1997 is in magnificent form today. Magical.

The 1997 Chablis Montee de Tonnerre has magnificent aromatics of sweet white fruits, candied apples, almonds, and red berries. This concentrated and medium-bodied wine offers loads of minerals, chalk, and flint in its mouth-coating personality. It has Raveneau's trademark purity of fruit, grip, and delineation. Anticipated maturity: now-2006. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel (510) 524-1524.
