Maison Laroche specializes in Chablis wines, where it owns 90 hectares of vines. It also uses partner winegrowers, who work throughout the year in collaboration with the Laroche teams. Vinification The whole bunches are crushed in a pneumatic press. The must then rests for 12 hours at a temperature between 12 and 15°C, in large vats accelerating the natural sedimentation and allowing to obtain a very clear must. The malolactic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel vats for 15 days at 16°C. Then follows the aging which will last from 4 to 6 months on fine lees in stainless steel vats.
