Fine and rare wine collectors often have lively discussions about who makes the best wine in a given region, be it Bordeaux or the Yarra Valley. When the question is about who makes the best wine of the famous Chablis region in France, the cognoscenti's verdict is always unanimous: Domaine Francois Raveneau.
Raveneau's wines exhibit the quintessential Chablis characteristics of minerality and wet stone with elements of flint and marine, braced and uplifted by the hallmark acidity of great Chablis. The annual Raveneau production of around 40,000 bottles ensures these wines are extremely rare and highly prized by fine and rare wine collectors.
