This plot classified as a premier cru is located in the heart of the Chablis appellation. Its exposure to shade from the sun at the end of the day, as well as the fact that the Chardonnays are grown on clay-limestone soils, allow to express itself with finesse. In the domain, the harvest is done manually and the wine is aged on fine lees for 12 months. This Chablis premier cru should be drunk within 10 years between 11°C and 13C. On the nose, we discover aromas of white flowers and citrus fruit. The palate surprises us by its sharpness and tension. It has an iodine character, very typical of Chablis wines. Its tangy finish and little "salty" notes mean it can be paired with fine, white-fleshed fish and goat’s cheeses.

Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys Long Depaquit - Albert Bichot (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Sushi de saumon, Roulé au saumon, Picodon.

    Information about domain Long Depaquit - Albert Bichot

    The origin of the Long-Depaquit domaine goes back to the history of the Abbey of Pontigny, a Cistercian monastery founded in 1114 by monks of Citeaux a few kilometres northwest of Chablis. A few years later, in 1128, the Cistercian monks had already developed their own domaine at Chablis. During the Revolution in 1789, Jean Depaquit, a priest of Pontigny, left the orders and returned to civil life. During the sale of national property, he bought the vineyards of the Abbey, including the famous vineyard of La Moutonne. His son, Benjamin, who had no children, adopted a certain François-Auguste Long, which would lead to the creation of the Long-Depaquit family, owner of the eponymous domaine. The château, built in 1791, is one of the most beautiful buildings of Chablis. Redeemed by the Beaunoise house Albert Bichot in 1970, this magnificent Chablis domaine developed and now covers 65 hectares. It still has its own teams and cellar. The maison Bichot also houses the Clos Frantin (Vosne-Romanée), Château-Gris at Nuits-Saint-Georges, Pavillon (Pommard), Adélie (Mercurey) and Rochegrès at Moulin-à-Vent.
