Long-Depaquit Chablis Les Clos 2016 (750ML)

94 JS / 92 WS / 92 BH / 17.5+ JR

Smooth and fluid with a very intense lime-citrus thread as well as some grapefruit. Long and powerful acid line. An elegant, powerful and stony finish. Drink or hold. - James Suckling

An elegant, vibrant white, featuring charming aromas and flavors of floral, apple, honey and pastry. Delivers structure, with a mineral element on the long finish. Drink now through 2025. 1,500 cases made, 300 cases imported.  - BS, Wine Spectator

Here too the expressive nose is wonderfully fresh and otherwise similar save for much more evident citrus influences. On the palate there is fine power, punch and volume to the more obviously concentrated broad-shouldered flavors that offer a bit less refinement but more muscle. Once again note that this too is going to need at least a few years of cellaring before it will be ready for prime time. - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Powerful green-apple fruit with chewy texture and great intensity on the length. Incredibly young but incredibly powerful, with more tension and promise than their Blanchots. Exceptionally long, intense finish. (RH) Jancis Robinson .com
