Domaine des Hâtes Pierrick Laroche Chablis Hawkes Bay non-interventionist vineyard workThe palate is pure, crisp, and finely mineral, with lemon, green apple, and white peach giving a clean, cool entry. Acidity is racy but slightly rounder than the Petit Chablis, carrying a line of chalk, wet stone, and subtle saline depth. The midpalate is slender yet more textured, showing hints of citrus pith and light whiteflower lift. The finish is dry, long, and stony, leaving citrus peel and a persistent, classic Chablis chalkiness.
