Subtle at first, the 2022 Domaine Laroche Chablis Les Fourchaumes Premier Cru Vieilles Vignes builds in the glass with ripe white peach, citrus zest and a hint of sea spray over a core of cool, old-vine intensity. The palate is tightly coiled yet generous, with vibrant acidity carrying layered stone-fruit and orchard notes into a long, clean, mouthwatering finish that already drinks well but clearly promises more nuance with time in bottle.

Domaine Laroche’s Chablis Premier Cru “Les Fourchaumes Vieilles Vignes” is a 100% Chardonnay from one of Laroche’s most prized Premier Cru slopes—ancient, south‑/west‑facing vines (roughly 70+ years) rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone—which yields an elegant, racy Chablis defined by intense minerality, crisp acidity and delicate white‑flower and orchard‑fruit notes, often with fine lees complexity and good aging potential.
