Domaine Laroche
Chablis Premier Cru Les Vaudevey
Vaudevey is the Premier Cru for true Chablis lovers. Very pure, it bears
witness to its fresh and rocky terroir. Its chiseled style offers
a palette of lively and mineral aromas
Located on the Left bank in Chablis, Les Vaudevey is located in a cool and narrow valley. Sun appears in the early morning and lasts until mid-afternoon. The ripening of grapes is slow, which helps aromas to concentrate and preserve acidity. One single plot of almost 10 ha with no more than 5 producers crafting wines from this Cru.

"This is a complex, fulsome Chablis. Chalk-dusted yellow apple and pastry aromas run through a meadow of field grass dusted by baby’s breath on the nose. The palate revolves around a robust fruit core that is balanced by a protective layer of vibrant acidity that modulates and enhances the mouthfeel, and extends the length of the taste that completes with a mineral finish."

"The 2023 Chablis Vau de Vey 1er Cru has a fresh bouquet with green apple, pear and crushed limestone scents. This has good vigor. The palate is well balanced with a fine thread of acidity and decent weight, although there is a patina of wood that occludes the finish."
