Score 91/100 · Drink 2025-2045, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Jul 2022

Notions of pear, citrus oil, white peach and spring flowers introduce the 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Forêt, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise wine that's elegant and fine-boned, concluding with a long, saline finish. As usual, this is the Raveneau premier cru to pick if you want to open a bottle young.

Score 90-92/100 · Drink 2023-2035, Neal Martin, Oct 2021

The 2020 Chablis Fôret 1er Cru has a pretty, generous nose of well-defined orange zest and Granny Smith apple scents, plus hints of quince and potpourri developing in the background. The palate is balanced, with modest weight, a slightly waxy texture and a fine bead of acidity. Quite tensile on the finish, where a dab of lemongrass lends complexity.
