Chardonnay from Chablis, France
Vintage: 2022
Volume:750ml
 
If you had to pick one 1er Cru to go toe-to-toe with Chablis Grand Crus, it’s Montée de Tonnerre—especially in the hands of Raveneau. This 2017 bottling is exactly what the hype’s about: intense, chiseled, and quietly electrifying.
Montée de Tonnerre sits just next to Les Blanchots (a Grand Cru), and it shows—it’s got that extra depth and presence, with lime, flint, oyster shell, and a bit of creamy leesy roundness that balances all the tension. The 2017 vintage gave it clarity and drive without excess weight—this one’s focused, lifted, and built for the long haul.
