DOMAINE GUY ROBIN CHABLIS 1ER CRU MONTEE DE TONNERRE 2018

$55.00

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 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, purchased vineyards and replanted them in the 1950s and 1960s; yet it is Marie-Ange who has brought the winery to a level of greatness, for which it was always destined. Simply put, there are few other Chablis estates with such a rich collection of older vines, and as a result, there are few other estates that can deliver Chablis wines of such character and complexity. Marie-Ange Robin practices sustainable farming, avoiding chemical treatments and following organic practices as much as conditions allow. Some 80% of estate vineyards are planted with older vines; in fact, estate vines in grand cru ‘Blanchot’ are some of Chablis’ oldest, at 80 years.
