“What explains the Raveneau magic? Yields here aren’t excessively high, but they’re not the region’s lowest. Fermentation at between 18 and 20 degrees centigrade in tank, followed by élevage on the lees in used barrels define the very elementary outlines of the winemaking process—a description that would equally apply to Vincent Dauvissat’s stylistically different wines. The devil is, presumably, in the details. And it’s a conundrum I’m content to ponder for the foreseeable future, as the Domaine Raveneau is undoubtedly the source of some of Chablis’s greatest wines—and its most dependably long-lived.”
