As expected, the east facing slopes of Blanchots have added an extra zip to the palate in this Grand Cru. An elegant wine which is already drinking well, but with so much more to come. White-clay is interspersed here with blue--clay, adding to the mineral flavours and creating a Grand Cru with great finesse. Highly successful in 2019. Bichot's investment at Long-Depaquit is certainly paying off. Drinking Window 2022 - 2032.

Pale lemon with a hint of green, certainly a lively colour. White fruit, but not flowers, the oak regime is similar to the other wines whereas I might be tempted to use less. I like however the elegance of correctly, but not obstreperously, ripe fruit, and this is certainly very persistent. Indeed the aftertaste is drawn out by a good level of acidity.
