The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine An outstanding winemaker from a famous Chablis family, Benjamin Laroche identifies and blends the most beautiful expressions of Chablis with fanatical intransigence. This Chardonnay enthusiast thus creates wines with a distinctive identity, chiseled and precise, which delight wine lovers. A demanding challenge that is illustrated in an impeccable range of wines where each wine bears the trace of its soil, the identity of its place.
Wine Fresh and precise, the 2021 White Chablis does not deny its terroir! The wine is full of limestone-like aromas, with a fresh, chiseled, very pure structure, which will develop beautifully over time. An amazingly well-balanced white wine to be savored at the beginning of the meal with gougères or raw fish, or more simply with a cheese platter.
Vinification Hand harvested, vinified in stainless steel tanks, aged for 8 months for 10 to 20% of the harvest in oak barrels and in stainless steel tanks for the rest.
