Decanter, 97 Points 

"Raveneau has 0.5ha in Les Clos in a plot which runs straight down the slope in the mid-levels of the climat. Great power and precision here, almost as if it were chiselled from the rock underneath the roots. Notes of pear and white peach, cut with thrilling acidity and great zesty acidity to finish. Very subtle oak. Powerful and fine. Very complex and layered in flavour. A great 2022." 

Vinous, 97 Points 

"The 2022 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has an absolutely delectable bouquet with irresistible scents of yellow flowers, orange pith, crushed limestone and light nutmeg scents. You could just sit there and nose this all day. The palate is extremely well balanced with a killer line of acidity, very intense and powerful with a satisfyingly long tail on the finish. Outstanding. What else do you expect?" 

Burghound, 94-97 Points 

"Note: from a .54 ha parcel. Here too there is just enough wood present to merit mentioning setting off the nose of essence of acacia, spiced pear, heavy mineral reduction, oyster shell, iodine and that pungent tidal pool character. On the palate the imposingly-scaled flavors also brim with sappy dry extract as well an almost aggressive minerality on the compact, powerful and driving finale that is serious and unbelievably persistent yet not especially austere. As is typically the case with this wine, it too is a 'buy and forget you own it' wine. In a word, brilliant.*Burghound Don't Miss!*

Jasper Morris, 94-97 Points 

"Racy lemon and lime, with an exquisite and explosive nose. A very light toast too. Lots going on here. A glorious wealth of fruit but above all it is the backbone, the line, this is the most pure yet concentrated expression of Chablis that one can imagine. Endless aftertaste. Just more open today? Drink from 2030-2040+." 

Wine Advocate, 96 Points 

"Like the domaine's Valmur, the 2022 Chablis Grand Cru Clos remains attractively cool and precise in this warm vintage. Revealing aromas of confit lemon, peach and orange zest mingled with notions of beeswax and white flowers, it's full-bodied, ample and satiny, with a racy spine of acidity and a long, chalky finish." 

Tim Atkin, 96 Points 

"The fresh fruit purity is scintillating in this über-expression of Les Clos. The wine teems with flavor and structure, but it is wholesome already, with everything feeling perfectly in place. The dry extract easily collaborates with the vivid acidity. Cheerful and abundant flavors of pear tart, lemon bars, barley and crushed quartz dazzle into the long and refreshingly dry finish."
