Albert Bichot, Domaine Long-Depaquit – Montmains 2020 – Chablis Premier Cru

The nose is beautifully conducted, elegant, fresh, racy and reveals depth, some complexity and a multi-layered character. There are notes of quince, crunchy white peach and more lightly of white flowers combined with touches of racy minerality, orange/kumquat and a discreet almost acacia touch. The palate is fruity, with finesse/mastery, revealing juiciness, acidity, freshness, minerality, crispness, energy, a nice acidity and energy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy, acidic lemon, quince and more lightly crisp green apple combined with delicate touches of juicy, fresh orange, white flowers, fine notes of racy minerality, almost a fine iodine note, some pearliness as well as a very discreet hint of fresh local grove and ripe almond. Good length.
