2022 Chablis, Fourchaume, 1er Cru, Le Domaine d'Henri, Burgundy

Description

The Laroche family have extensive holdings in Fourchaume (with organic certification from 2022). This, their calling card, is a blend of parcels, mostly from L’Homme Mort. It has a spicy nose with lavender, toast and iodine notes. The palate is creamy, seductive and caressing, with a cashmere texture and a long, floral finish. It’s an elegant and come-hither Chablis.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 90-92/100

From Fourchaume itself and Vaupulans. From tank, untouched since going into tank. Barely any reduction. Slightly more intensity and grassier in style, with good energy behind. Still cloudy in amphora, steelier behind though with the slatey nose which I associate with these vessels.

Drink 2026 - 2030

About this wine

Fourchaume

Fourchaume

Winemaking in La Fourchaume, a prestigious Premier Cru vineyard in Chablis, involves meticulous processes to capture the essence of its terroir. The southeast-facing slope ensures optimal sun exposure for the Chardonnay grapes. The Kimmeridgian limestone soils with fossils contribute distinct mineral flavours. Stainless steel fermentation preserves freshness, while ageing highlights the grape's natural attributes.
