Laroche
The historical cellar was just half a century ago undergoing a considerable crisis, from which it emerged thanks to the renewed interest in the homeland of chardonnay and well-thought-out moves by Michel Laroche. Today, they manage 100 hectares of vineyards, situated in the best selected locations, among which Les Chablots stand out. Laroche exercises the practice of dry wines, often refined in wood, where the process of deacidification partially softens them, despite the fact that it is thanks to acid that these wines are incredibly long-lasting.

Clear lemon in colour. The nose is fruity and fragrant. Lively and mineral, the Petit Chablis has layers of juicy white nectarine and peach flavours that result in a fresh finish.Whole bunches were collected into a pneumatic press. The fruit was settled for 12 hours at 12 to 15°C in specially designed wide tanks, resulting in very clear juice. Fermentation lasted for two weeks at 16°C in stainless steel tanks. The wine was then aged for six months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Minimum filtration took place to preserve the natural character of the wine.The vines are cared for in the same way as the Domaine's own, with utmost attention paid to maintaining the lively, mineral fruit character that typifies good Chablis. The Petit Chablis was harvested according to the ripeness of each plot. Winemaker Grégory Viennois refers to Chardonnay's 'two-day window', once each parcel has ripened it is harvested within two days.Contains sulfites.

The terroir of Chablis has both excellent acidity and remarkable finesse. Thanks to a long ageing on fine lees, Chablis Saint Martin offers the typical minerality of the best terroirs of this wine region.

Les Vaudevey are located in a cool and narrow valley. Sun appears in early morning and lasts until mid-afternoon. The ripening of grapes is slow, which helps aromas to concentrate and acidity to be kept.
