Laroche Chablis Saint Martin 2025 12% ABV 0.75 l

The Laroche Chablis Saint Martin 2025 12% is a classic French white wine from Chablis in Burgundy, made from 100% Chardonnay. The Cuvée Saint Martin is one of Domaine Laroche’s signature wines and pays homage to Chablis’s wine-growing history, which stretches back over 1,000 years. The wine is made from selected historic terroirs within the Chablis Village appellation, with each plot assessed individually based on its aspect and soil composition. The Chablis region is particularly renowned for its Kimmeridgian limestone soils, which play a key role in giving these Chardonnay wines their distinctive character. With Saint Martin, Domaine Laroche pursues a precise, terroir-driven style and, from work in the vineyard through to vinification and ageing, places particular emphasis on expressing the terroir as clearly as possible.

With 12% alcohol by volume in the 0.75-litre bottle, the Laroche Chablis Saint Martin 2025 is a dry, terroir-driven Chardonnay that is versatile enough to be enjoyed as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to food. The cuvée is named after Saint Martin of Tours, whose history is closely linked to Chablis; today, Saint Martin is regarded as the town’s patron saint. The historic cellars of Domaine Laroche are located in the Obédiencerie, a former 9th-century monastery in the heart of Chablis. The estate estimates that the Chablis Saint Martin has an ageing potential of five to ten years, meaning the 2025 vintage can be enjoyed young or laid down for further development in the bottle. This Chardonnay from Chablis thus combines historical origins, careful terroir selection and the characteristic style of a classic Chablis Village.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Laroche Chablis Saint Martin 2025 displays a clear, pale golden-yellow colour with fresh highlights. On the nose, the Chardonnay is precise and elegant, with delicate notes of citrus and white fruit, as well as subtle floral and mineral hints. On the palate, the Chablis is straightforward, lively and fresh, with a clear structure and a pronounced mineral character. The finish is precise, fresh and lingering, with a delicate mineral tension that underlines the cuvée’s characteristic style.

The Laroche Chablis Saint Martin 2025 is excellent as an aperitif and pairs particularly well with seafood, shellfish and fish dishes. Oysters, scallops, prawns, grilled sea bass or sole, as well as light seafood starters, are particularly well-suited. This Chablis Chardonnay also makes an elegant accompaniment to sushi and delicately prepared vegetable dishes. Domaine Laroche recommends a serving temperature of 12–14 °C, at which the wine’s freshness, structure and mineral character are particularly well balanced.
