Rated estate (2020 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Cécilia Trimaille has just settled in Chablis, taking over from Matthieu Mangenot at the helm of Domaine Long-Depaquit, the Bichot family’s Chablis estate since 1970. The vineyard here is one of the most comprehensive in the region, spanning 65 hectares, including 5 of the appellation’s 7 grands crus (not counting the famous Moutonne monopole); a tasting here offers a wonderful glimpse into the diversity of the area’s terroirs. The 2017 vintage was good despite the spring frost, which affected volumes more than quality. With the exception of the disappointing Les-Lys premier cru, all the other vintages tasted excellent.

About the estate:
A well-known Beaune-based producer, Albert Bichot owns the Long-Depaquit estate in Chablis, which encompasses a prestigious selection of vineyards, including the La Moutonne grand cru—which he holds as a monopoly—benefiting from the sunniest exposure in the appellation. The wines often express a roundness and generosity that make them approachable when young. While the range appears more consistent, the expression of the terroirs can certainly gain in intensity and precision. Cécilia Trimaille, 31, the new estate manager, will strive to support this progress.
