Region : Chablis (France)

Bottle Per Case : 6 x 750 ml

Tasting Notes

The 2020 Cuvée Marie-Ange is 100% Chardonnay made from estate vines at the top of a slope, facing premier cru vineyard ‘Vaillons’ on the left bank of the Serein river. The fruit was hand-harvested and pressed right away, with the juice held in tank for 24 hours to settle naturally. Fermented on indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels (10% of which was new) and aged just under one year. Aromas of sauteed lemons, crushed oyster shells, lime curd, and incense. This wine is energetic and refined; indeed an exquisite expression of Chablis!

The Producer

Domaine Guy Robin et Fils

In the early 2000s, Marie-Ange Robin had a choice. Stay in Paris and pursue a successful career as a fine art dealer, or return home to Chablis and take the reins of the family winery. Her decision would not only change her family’s fortunes but also preserve a critical piece of Chablis history.

Domaine Guy Robin et Fils today is a winery reborn. Marie-Ange represents the fourth generation of vine growers in the family. It was her father Guy who slowly, parcel by parcel, built up the family estate; yet it is Marie-Ange who has brought this winery to a level of greatness for which it was always destined.

Marie-Ange remembers her parents planting the family’s vines in the late 1950s and 1960s, at a time when other defeated Chablis growers were leaving the village in droves, exhausted by the hard work (and repeated destructive frosts) of this northern wine region. But Marie-Ange’s parents persevered.

Because of her family’s efforts, Domaine Robin today claims the most premier and grand cru vineyard land (second only to neighbouring William Fevre) – not to mention some of the oldest Chardonnay vines – in Chablis. And as a result, Robin Chablis across the board has a seductive, textural quality to it - they are unctuous, weighty, serious Chablis wines.

In short, there are few other estates that promise old-vine Chablis wines of such character and complexity.
