    Pierrick’s parcel comes from the western end of Bougros, towards the top of the hill where the slope is only about 5 %. Vinified in stainless steel, it was matured for 8 months in one barrique and one old 500 litre barrel, adding an extra dimension of complexity to complement the profoundly concentrated fruit from this exceptional site. An outstanding Grand Cru. 

    Bougros lies to the west of the Chablis Grand Cru appellation its position on the slope offers wind protection. The site extends over a large southwest-facing terrace at the top and over a steeper south-facing slope towards the bottom. This hillside positioning is favourable, soaking up intense sunlight for the necessary hours each day. This sun-drenched character first hits the palate with concentrated generous fruits, then gives way to a refined structure of acidity and mineral drive. Lasting long in the mouth, elegant and intensely mineral, it needs a bit of patience to fully express its potential.

    Domaine des Hâtes Pierrick Laroche Chablis Grand Cru Bougros 2022

    Beautifully inviting. Larger scale – of course! A wine of generous concentration but always juicily melting with flavour at the edges. Clearly the most complex and changing, long finish. Simply excellent grand cru.

    — Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report, January 2024

    Domaine des Hâtes

    Pierrick Laroche, the proud owner of Domaine des Hâtes, continues the legacy of his family's estate located in the picturesque village of Maligny, in the north-west sector of Chablis. The name of Pierrick's Domaine, "hâtes" refers to an old agricultural unit of measure, similar to the English rod. It evokes the long and slender fields used for sowing, where the longer rows made plowing easier with fewer turns. The term "hâtes" was often used to describe such fields.

    Established by his father in the 1970s, Pierrick's family vineyard holdings have gradually expanded over time, resulting in the current size of around 33 hectares. After obtaining a degree in oenology from Beaune, Pierrick embarked on a journey to gain valuable experience by traveling the world and undertaking various internships. Armed with knowledge and a deep passion for winemaking, he returned home to take over the family vineyards and start producing his own wines.
