2019 | Le Domaine D'henri | Chablis L`Homme Mort

The nose has exotic spice and a touch of lavender, the palate is generous and warming with hot stone minerality. It’s intense, with tangy acids and impressive viscosity and power wrapped in a cashmere texture. Wonderfully complex

Reviews:

• Jasper Morris: Very pale colour, backward, classy but reluctant. Very pretty fruit here, even quite floral, with some perfect limestone notes through the middle, providing just the tension that is needed.

Producer Information

Ancestors of the Laroche family owned vines in Chablis as long ago as 1695. Today, with Michel Laroche as patriarch, they are among the most respected winemaking dynasties in all of France. Michel has steered a wise yet bold path since his first vintage in 1967. In 2010, he sold the family’s stake in Domaine Laroche in order to establish a new, smaller, quality-oriented domaine, which he would name after his father, Henri. The winery at Domaine d’Henri may have been constructed from scratch, but a significant proportion of the domaine’s holdings is venerable. Of particular note are the 80-year-old vines in the Premier Cru Fourchaume vineyard, which produce the fruit for their Héritage cuvée.he domaine is currently converting to organic viticulture, while the objective in the winery is to allow each different terroir to express itself. Each parcel is therefore vinified separately, using only natural yeast. Between 10 and 35% of any given wine is aged in barrel depending on the vintage and cuvée – just the right amount to highlight, rather than mask, the startling purity of the domaine’s wines.
