Domaine Laroche
Chablis Vieille Voye
Being one of the oldest vineyards in Chablis, Vieille Voye has a rich history. It is located alongside an old road, from which it takes its name. It is known that Vieille Voye belonged to the abbots of Pontigny and was planted as early as the XVIth century. The abbots of Pontigny were in competition with the canons of the Obédiencerie for the vineyards of Chablis. As real pioneers, they gave shape to the crus.
This plot, settled beneath Premier Cru Les Vaillons on a rounded slope, lies over 7ha. A vineyard with all the characteristics of a great terroir of Chablis: sunny exposure, Kimmeridgian limestone soil, and 70 year-old vines. Ripeness can be achieved without losing the typical salty character of the terroir. Blessed with abundant sunshine, the soil is well-aerated and drained. In a word, it has the perfect conditions to ripen Chardonnay grape.

A balance between acidity and soft fruit, with an intense and salty finish. Finesse, salty minerality, and long length. The wine you would dream to pair with the best seafood.

"This cheerful Chablis has smile-inducing aromas of honey-dipped apple slice, brioche and quince that are accented by gentle wisps of orange blossom. The palate is bright with lively acidity that swims into a fort of roasted lemon on the finish."
— Anna-Christina Cabrales, 2025
