Lemon zest, ripe pear and white flowers glide over a firm core of crushed stone in the 2016 Domaine François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Monts Mains, giving a sense of both charm and precision. The palate is supple and medium-bodied with good concentration, showing a subtly creamy texture that’s kept in check by bright acidity and a persistent, saline finish. This vintage leans toward an earlier-drinking, approachable style while still offering classic Chablis tension and cut.
