Benjamin Laroche Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons Vieilles Vignes 2013
About the wine
Benjamin only uses the best parcels of grapes for his mouth-wateringly luxurious Chablis Premier Cru
- When you grow up in a family of winemakers in a beautiful region like Chablis, you cannot think about doing something else than making a sensational fine wine like this.
- My Premier Cru Vaillons Vieilles Vignes is bright and vibrant with a long velvety finish that comes from the sun soaked vineyard. The old vines add a delicious creamy richness and complexity. In one sip, you can discover an amazing diversity of aromas, flavours and minerality.
- A powerful yet elegant Chablis like this has great ageing potential. From now until 12 years, I am pretty sure it will still be astonishing.
