Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots Domaine Laroche 2005

The wine

From a terroir that lends itself well to the slow maturation of Chardonnay (exposure to the south and clay soil), this grand cru stands out for its excellent ageing potential. This will allow it to refine its fruity notes, as well as it delicate and silky texture.

About the Producer Laroche

Domaine Laroche has superb plots in Chablis and completes its supply by purchasing grapes. Created by the very dynamic Michel Laroche, the domaine was sold to Advini in 2009 like the other domaines he created in Languedoc (Le Mas de la Chevalière), Chile (Punto Alto) and South Africa (L’Avenir). Thanks to the group's investments, the wines have continued to progress. The maturity is perfectly mastered: the grapes are ripe but always retain superb acidity and the wines are mostly matured in barriques but without ever getting marked. A location which is not-to-be-missed.
