Wow! Outrageously delicious Chablis at this price. Deeply satisfying. Marie-Ange Robin, who runs the estate, owns vines across five Grand Cru vineyards and four Premier Cru vineyards, 80% of them old vines. She has 7 acres in Montee de Tonnerre, the Premier Cru vineyard that borders Chablis’ Grand Cru row. Soils are known as “millefeuille,” or many-layered, with white clay and fossilized oyster shells – very mineral, racy, and fine, with lemon custard, earth and oyster shell notes and a satiny, lovely texture.

Sounds good right? It IS. This wine gets some pretty good love on Cellartracker as well, and of course who can beat our price??! 2017 is an excellent vintage, and despite early frost and greatly reduced yields (by about a third!), the wines are classic, correct, and vibrant with beautiful fruit concentration.

$39.95 --- that’s $239.70 for six-pack with free ground shipping! While it lasts…!

About the Producer

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 in the 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, few other estates that deliver Chablis wines of such character and complexity.

Because Guy refused to tear up vines for high-yielding clones as was the practice decades ago in Chablis, some 80% of the family’s vines across five grand cru vineyards and four premier cru vineyards are older vines – these low-yielding plants deliver Chardonnay that is richly aromatic, reflecting Chablis’ historic terroir like a mirror.
