Domaine Long-Depaquit Chablis Premier Cru Les Vaucopins Albert Bichot 2005

The wine history of Domaine Long-Depaquit dates back to 1128 France, when Cistercian monks at the Abbey of Pontigny built a cellar and began cultivating vines around the site of the present day Chateau. In 1968 it was purchased by the Bichot family which expanded the holdings to 70 hectares of prime vineyards. WS: Ripe and exotic, with seashore and earth aromas followed by peach and melon notes. Fleshy and soft, this gets a lift from a hint of bitterness on the spicy finish.
