“While this wine initially exhibits reduction, it quickly unveils layers of complexity. Currently restrained yet promising, the concentrated nose reveals citrus, Bosc pear, acacia, and stone. The palate is round and generous, showcasing ample stone, white mushroom, and salinity. Piercing acidity awakens the palate, delivering a wealth of sensations. It should benefit from additional cellaring through 2028+ to reveal its full depth.”

About This Wine

Les Blanchots is a unique terroir made of a layer of white clay on Kimmeridgian limestone with ammonites. This is the ideal combination to keep the right amount of water for roots.

The South-East exposure allows slow ripening and favours aroma development.

The favourite Grand Cru of Domaine Laroche, offering much finesse and charm.

Producer Notes

Blanchots is delicate, silky and shows its charm after 5 years in bottle. At peak after 10 to 12 years.
