In a blend dominated by Chardonnay, the 10% Viognier makes a surprising difference, giving southern aromatics and ripeness to the elegant, green and white fruit flavors of the Chardonnay and the restrained touch of wood.

With some maturity, this wine shows delicious food-friendly levels of black fruits, acidity and a fine balancing tannic structure. From Michel Laroche’s Languedoc winery near Beziers, this is a blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. Brambles, black currants and licorice all come together in this dense wine.

The branded line of wines produced at Laroche’s Mas la Chevaliere in the Languedoc goes out under Michel Laroche’s own name. This Syrah is packed with clean, ripe, enjoyable fruit, a spicy character with just a touch of vanilla and good acidity.

A fresh, simple wine, all crisp green fruit with ripe apples and a touch of grapefruit. Delicious; drink now. Screwcap.

A wine made from purchased grapes at Michel Laroche’s Mas la Chevaliere. As a Chablis producer, Laroche knows a thing or two about Chardonnay, and this is a rich, creamy wine, but with elegance, the wood only a hint behind the ripe green plums and acidity.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An impressive wine, a blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cabernet Sauvignon, this is only produced in the best vintages at Michel Laroche’s Mas la Chevalière. The summer of 2003 in the Languedoc was not as hot as the rest of France, so, while the wine is full-bodied, it is not overpowering despite its richness and dense black fruits. Age this wine for another two years.
