Laroche Chablis 1st Cru

Domaine Laroche

Chablis

Premier Cru

       " Domaine Laroche " strives for a global approach of responsibility and sustainability that is translated into agro-ecological viticulture.

How to define? It is simply a method that takes into account the relationship between the plant, its physiology, its soil, its climate and the environment.

It quickly becomes clear that the balance of the plant contributes significantly to the reduction of treatments, as it naturally becomes more resistant to diseases and pests.

       We have our own specifications, based on a few simple principles: no herbicides, no insecticides or anti-rot. The treatments used must help the plant and not disturb the balance or ripening of the grapes.

For example, we are experimenting with natural nettle and valerian treatments that are very effective.

Just thinking ecologically in the vineyard would be nonsense. In the winery, we apply the same principles as in the vineyard: inputs are kept to a minimum and we work to reduce energy consumption and use of rainwater.

A global approach to taking the environment into account in our activity requires skills, and therefore people.

We cannot say enough how important they are, in the transfer, but also in the creation of new experiences.

We encourage learning because it enables effective witnessing, especially when it comes to manual dexterity.
