Laroche - Mas La Chevalière

The Laroche family has been producing and crafting Chablis wines since 1850. Michel Laroche, representing the fifth generation, joined the family estate in 1967 to carry on the tradition and continue the work begun by his predecessors. In the mid-1980s, he became interested in the Mediterranean vineyards of southern France. In 1995, he acquired Domaine Laroche - Mas La Chevalière on the outskirts of Béziers and now owns a total of 45 hectares of vineyards in production. The diversity of soils, climates, and grape varieties at Domaine Laroche - Mas La Chevalière offers an incredible range of red, white, and rosé wines, ranging from fresh, light aperitif wines to powerful, structured reds.

The Languedoc region combines an impressive variety of terroirs that allow for the successful cultivation of a wide range of grape varieties. Almost anything is possible in this region for those willing to put in the effort: a climate suited to growing Chardonnay or Pinot Noir on high-altitude, cool-climate terrain in the foothills of the Massif Central or the Pyrenees, limestone or schist on sunny plateaus that will delight Syrah, Merlot, or Grenache; the coolness of the seaside to bring out the aromas of Sauvignon or Viognier; and warm microclimates that allow Cabernet Sauvignon or Mourvèdre to ripen perfectly. The pursuit of aromatic freshness is constant. Respect for the work in the vineyard and the quality of the grapes is at the heart of our concerns. Domaine Laroche - Mas La Chevalière boasts a state-of-the-art winery whose high-quality equipment allows us to bring out the quintessence of each grape variety and each vineyard plot.
