| "The Larue holdings are spread between the two villages of Saint-Aubin and Puligny-Montrachet, with a large concentration at the southern portion of the Saint-Aubin appellation. These holdings include seven premier cru climats, on south, southeast, and southwestern facing slopes, grown on variations of clay soils with a high concentration of limestone. Combined with the varying grades of slope and elevations ranging from 800 to 1200 feet, the Larues have a truly magical diversity within Saint-Aubin, one of the under-rated gems of Burgundy. The Domaine's premier cru vineyard in Puligny-Montrachet, La Garenne, sits at a high altitude in the Hameau de Blagny, bordering Meursault. Their largest parcel, Saint-Aubin premier cru Murgers des Dents de Chien, shares its name with the Dents de Chien lieu-dit of Le Montrachet that is right around the corner …. Wines from Larue possess purity, energy, and an invariable minerality derived from the predominant limestone soils of Saint-Aubin. The Larues are meticulous and precise in all aspects of winegrowing and winemaking and their wines reflect these qualities. Tasting the full range is a veritable tour of the appellation, with each terroir’s individual and striking signature clearly evident. These wonderful white Burgundies have the additional benefit of being approachable young, although they are tightly wound and can always benefit from a few extra years of bottle age."

| | | "Intense, chalky, energetic, and concentrated, with notes of lemon oil, wet stone, gardenia, fresh maritozzo, green apple, white peach, white pepper, and struck match. The wine boasts a beautifully gossamer texture allied with layers of impressive phenolic structure, a tenacious mineral undertow, an echo of judicious oak application, and a captivatingly persistent finish."
Staff Notes |
| | "Winemaking is quite classic, with whole-bunch pressing, barreling down without too much in the way of lees, and maturation lasting between 11 and 17 months. In addition to the Domaine's pure and precise whites, some 30% of the production is devoted to pretty, savory red wines."
