    Flavors of lime and white flowers signal this elegant white, which is driven by vivid acidity. The citrus theme continues through the long aftertaste, enhanced by floral and vanilla accents. Drink now through 2029. 463 cases made, 93 cases imported.

    Neal Martin

    The 2022 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a very harmonious bouquet, with assiduous use of oak here that is seamlessly assimilated. It’s quite minerally compared to others, with impressive delineation. The palate is taut and fresh, notably citrus-driven on the entry before segueing into subtler, more exotic fruit toward the composed finish. Very refined. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis.

    La RVF

    This grand cru lives up to its status, the most graceful and balanced of the series, with fruit that feels composed, conveying the vintage’s fleshy depth without sidestepping the imprint of its terroir. It unfolds into a long, savory, and sapid finish.

    Description

    The elegance and refinement of a Chablis Grand Cru

    The estate

    An essential reference in Chablis, Burgundy, Domaine Laroche is particularly distinguished by a unique historical heritage dating back to the 9th century. Having joined the Advini group in 2009, Domaine Laroche is renowned for the precision, elegance and aromatic richness of its wines, which authentically express the subtlety of the Chablis terroirs.

    The vineyard

    Once enclosed by walls—hence its name "Clos"—this Bourgogne vineyard was planted with vines by the monks of the Abbey of Saint Martin of Tours in the 9th century. Facing the village of Chablis and enjoying a southern exposure, it benefits from sunshine that promotes optimal ripening of the grapes. The well-drained soil contributes to the concentration of acidity and aromas in the grapes.

    Winemaking and aging

    Harvested by hand, the grapes are rigorously sorted upon arrival at the winery. This Chablis wine benefited from aging on fine lees in stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels.

    Blend

    This 2022 Domaine Laroche Chablis Grand Cru "Les Clos" is 100% Chardonnay.
