The domaine was founded in 1948, when François Raveneau and his wife combined their families' vineyard holdings. He was the first of his family to bottle wines made from the grapes from his vineyards – prior to this the grapes had been sold off to other producers. Today the domaine has eight hectares (20 acres) of land spread across three grand cru and six premier cru sites in Chablis. It is run by François' sons: Bernard and Jean-Marie. Domaine François Raveneau has small plots in grand cru sites Blanchot, Les Clos and Valmur and premier cru sites Montée de Tonnerre, Les Vaillons, Butteaux, Chapelot, Montmains, and Forêt. Most of these sites are planted on southwest-facing valley slopes, which allow for maximum sun exposure and ripening. These vineyards are planted Kimmeridgian clay and limestone soils, which are typical of the region. The vines are on average 30 years old, with those in the Montée de Tonnerre Premier Cru having an average age of 50. The grapes are all harvested by hand and then fermented with indigenous yeasts. This is followed by malolactic fermentation in barrels, and then the wines are aged for an extended period of time.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-27T11:40:09-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-27T02:50:02-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Nini2712","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Domaine Raveneau","Region_Burgundy","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":562495,"price_min":562495,"price_max":562495,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42648454758538,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2012 | Domaine Raveneau | Chablis Montee de Tonnerre (Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":562495,"weight":19051,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/16_e6bc7d6c-7374-4b91-bcbb-329f55a7d25d.png?v=1672127478"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/16_e6bc7d6c-7374-4b91-bcbb-329f55a7d25d.png?v=1672127478","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2012 | Domaine Raveneau | Chablis Montee de Tonnerre (Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":23852627263626,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.697,"height":538,"width":375,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/16_e6bc7d6c-7374-4b91-bcbb-329f55a7d25d.png?v=1672127478"},"aspect_ratio":0.697,"height":538,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/16_e6bc7d6c-7374-4b91-bcbb-329f55a7d25d.png?v=1672127478","width":375}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite wine: 2012 | Domaine Raveneau | Chablis Montee de Tonnerre (Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2012 Chablis Montee de Tonnerre offering up a deep and primary bouquet of apple, tart orange, very complex, flinty minerality, incipient notes of beeswax, a touch of chalkiness, citrus zest and a top note of white flowers.
