Laser beam to my Chardonnay pleasure center. Such focused orchard fruit, flint and sappiness , with a hint of salinity. Reductive (surprise!) upon opening, much more giving with a couple hours in the decanter. Every time I question the QPR of white Burgundy, Roulot reels me back in. Thanks, @Evan Vallee. I need a winning lotto ticket or something... — 10 years ago

Lemon, citrus, wet stone, oyster shell, gun flint, and saline notes. Love the tension in the ripeness of the vintage against the bracing acidity. Raveneau delivers again! — 11 years ago

Extremely layered but delicate nose lets you know you are in for a treat. There's no kick of gooseberry or cat pee, funk or wool. Instead, a great balance between the signature gun smoke, flint and lit match, layered with extra clean lemon, lime, and grapefruit. Palate is rich and round, full of citrus fruit and a stream of acidity. — 10 years ago

2001. Can I get an amen??!! Beautiful bottle. Expressions of flint and matchstick that evolves into epic meursault. Only flaw is that there aren't that many bottles of this left! — 11 years ago

Flint & Steel adds a crisp flinty backbone to classic Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc. A lovely nose of honeysuckle, peach and grapefruit rind is followed by flavors of mango, kiwi, lemongrass & freshly squeezed grapefruit. The wine is medium bodied with a smooth and refreshing finish. — 12 years ago

My favorite white wine from Coppola's! 100% Viognier, single-vineyard. Fully stainless steel so nice and crisp. Tropical fruit flavors up front of pineapple, green apple, with a little mango and guava. Very refreshing! Chill this one and enjoy it on its own. — 10 years ago

03 was a inquire year in France especially in burgundy. This grand cru was awesome with that straw color and minerality that is in every raveneau. This wine took two hours to finally open.... Balance meyer lemon and a bit of flint.... Just don't make chablis like raveneau. — 11 years ago

Took a couple hours to open up then showed terrific gun flint minerality, bracing acidity and tangy lemon-lime fruit. Would lay off for a couple years before trying again when I suspect the components will be better integrated. — 12 years ago
