Chablis Le Clos

2006 Long-Depaquit Chablis Le Clos

Dense, tight fruit on the nose. Not fat, but there’s rippling muscle under the hood. More powerful in the mouth and the finish, though that finish is nicely mineral.

Understated fruit that is just a little diffuse. Mineral and with good acidity – a faint spritz too – An excellent burst of interest on the mid-palate and a good finish. The most ‘Chablis’ wine so far for me.

The nose here is only about ripe fruit – almost too much. Fuller in the mouth with good acidity. Actually it’s just a little plump and it’s not quite as long as the last wine. Good but not great.

The first note is surprisingly of slightly toasty oak and quite a lot of swirlying is not enough to dislodge it. Just a little more mineral than I was expecting after the nose, and it’s certainly loinger and more interesting than the previous wine. It’s actually very good – but why than oak?
