Chablis Grand Cru "Les Blanchots"

Domaine Long-Depaquit

Situation

Chablis

Level

AOC Grand cru

Grape variety

Chardonnay

Located at the eastern edge of the Grand Crus hill, "Les Blanchots" derives its name from the stony soil that is composed of whitish limestone and light-coloured calcareous clay subsoil.
Our plot lies on a very steep slope in the coolest part of this Climat, which lends the wine its vivacity and finesse. The soil, which features scattered areas of bluish clay, and the primarily morning sunshine lend this Grand Cru its very unique typicity, which is expressed by predominant floral aromas and remarkable finesse.

Tasting

Exquisite scents of white flowers (lily, rose) dominate on the nose. The palate is full-bodied and generous, featuring remarkable harmony and a pronounced mineral finish that is complemented by a hint of iodine and smoke (flint, graphite).

Food/wine pairing

Taste this wine with finely prepared fine fish and crustaceans (lobster, rock lobster …), or with roasted or stewed poultry and white meats.
Recipe suggestion: sea bass with citrus fruits

Serving and keeping
