Raveneau Chablis Les Clos 1999 750mL [Chipped Wax Capsule, Bin Soiled Label]

"Unlike many '99 Chablis that are frankly rather dilute in character, the '99 Raveneau Clos exudes plenty of classic Chablis character, indeed so much so that there is simply nothing else it could be. There is still a faint trace of wood present on the ripe yet elegant white fruit and green apple aromas that are now fully mature. The big, robust and palate staining flavors are blessed with ample amounts of dry extract that imparts a sappy texture to the long, powerful and mineral-infused finish. The mid-palate is admirably dense for the vintage and this should be capable of continuing to hold well. I have had relatively consistent notes save for one bottle that displayed definite signs of premox." - Burghound, BH93, tasted 7/2017
