About the product
The Laroche wine house is one of the best wine producers in France. The company "Domaine Laroche" was founded in 1850 by Jean-Victor Laroche, who bought his first small vineyard in Chablis. Since 1967, the company has been managed by Michel Laroche, a representative of the fifth generation of the famous winemaker dynasty. The area of the company's own vineyards has expanded from 6 hectares to 100 hectares in Chablis and 30 hectares in Languedoc. Michel Laroche adheres to both the classic technology of wine production and is an innovator. A striking example is the use of a screw cap instead of the traditional one. Les Chanoines were the first monks to produce wine in Chablis, in the Obediencerie cellars. Chablis Le Chanoine is a tribute to them. The wine has a good balance, fresh acidity, bright fruit components and a strict minerality
