Presentation
At the heart of the Domaine Long-Depaquit in Chablis, we have meticulously crafted this exceptional elixir. Derived from the distillation of pomace from our renowned Grand Cru Moutonne, it has aged for over 30 years in barrels that once nurtured this prestigious monopole. A terroir of excellence, elevated by time and human dedication.
Location
La Moutonne is a 2.35-hectare parcel nestled within a natural amphitheater at the heart of the Grand Crus, the historical and millennia-old sector of the Chablis vineyard.
Situated 95% in Vaudésir and 5% in Preuses, formerly owned by the Monks of Pontigny, La Moutonne is a Monopole of Domaine Long-Depaquit.
