Note di degustazione
The 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux has turned out beautifully, unwinding in the glass with notions of pear, orange oil, wheat toast, confit lemon and petrol. Medium to full-bodied, textural and satiny, it's racy and concentrated, with a deep, multidimensional profile and a long, saline finish. As in 2020, Butteaux's deep, clay-rich soils seem to have been favored by the warm, dry vintage.

The 2019 Chablis Les Butteaux 1er Cru has a supremely focused, mineral-driven bouquet; traces of white flowers, white truffle and fennel come through with time. The palate is poised and delineated, revealing veins of white chocolate and slithers of white peach. A little spiciness surfaces with aeration. This is a gorgeous Butteaux, always one of my favorites from Raveneau. It will age extremely well.
The 2019 Chablis Les Butteaux 1er Cru has more richness on the nose compared to Les Vaillons, hints of dried honey, orange pith and shaved almond emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, very harmonious and more rounded than Les Vaillons. There is a nice touch of bitter lemon on the finish, although overall I just prefer the elegance of the Vaillons.
