Francois Raveneau Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2014

94+/100 - The 2014 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur, which I did not taste last year from barrel, has a riveting bouquet with cold, wet limestone and slate-like aromas that are extremely focused. The palate is well defined with a keen thread of acidity, very saline with a mouthwatering sappiness on the finish. Stubbornly backward, almost sultry and petulant, it will need several years to really settle into its groove. I strongly suspect this has something up its sleeve for those who allow this to mature for several years in the cellar. - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate

96/100 - Very pale lemon color. The nose conveys the high-pitched aromas of lemon, white pepper, lavender and iodiney oyster-shell minerality that only a dog can hear. Super concentrated, elegant and weightless on the palate, conveying penetrating flavors of citrus peel, sea salt and liquid stone. Wonderfully energetic but without any corners. A great wine in the making: utterly seamless from start to sappy, palate-staining finish. Really bulletproof fruit here: it's hard to scrape this stuff off the palate. - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

97/100 - Sensational perfume yet still quite subtle with delicate citrus notes and nuances of iodine. Has finesse rather than weight with great texture on the palate and a superb finish of wild flowers. Ageworthy, and one to enjoy with delicate dishes. - Decanter
