- Description
The most prestigious Premier Cru. Most of the winery’s holdings are within the Homme Mort portion of the appellation. A racy, elegant wine with intense minerality; a beautiful structure with delicate notes of white blossom and orchard fruit.
Domaine Laroche own 2.44 ha (6 acres) of this large Premier Cru of 103 ha (254.5 acres). The vines are planted on a slope well exposed to the South and West, sheltered from Northern wind. One man, one plot: There are more than 30 people who are dedicated to caring for the 90-plus hectares (222.39 acres) of Domaine Laroche vineyards, with each person responsible for only one plot. This tailor-made approach allows them to manage the vineyards with precision, speed and accuracy.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Burghound - "Here too the wood is generous and sufficient to fight with the vaguely exotic nose of white orchard fruit, especially peach, along with nuances of quinine, ocean breeze and algae. There is at once good richness but also good cut to the slightly less stony but even more complex flavors that display fine persistence on the clean, dry and refreshing finale. Note that this is sufficiently structured to repay up to a decade of keeping yet it should also drink well young. *Outstanding* (90-93pts)"
