Technique
Viticulture
The largest estate in St-Emilion, its vineyards cover 61 hectares in one piece, 27 of which are dedicated to the Grand Cru Classé. Clay-limestone soil. Average age of the vines: 35 years.
Oenology
Vinification in temperature-controlled cement vats. Aged in barrels for 11 to 13 months, 50% of which are new. Bottled 18 to 20 months after the harvest.
Royally situated on one of the highest points of Saint-Emilion, the limestone terroirs of Laroque produce some of the most luminous, floral and spicy wines with a fresh salinity. The property has been run for several vintages by the young David Suire, who made his name with his work at Château Larcis Ducasse. With Laroque, he has found a choice playground, as the vineyard is the largest and most diversified of all Saint-Emilion, with quite a geo-pedological mosaic: the terroirs are made up of a plateau of chestnut and red clays on asteriated limestone, terraces to the east and slopes to the west, on fine bluish clays with a lot of limestone.
