Domaine Guy Robin et Fils Description
Winemaker Marie-Ange Robin represents the fourth generation of vine growers in the family. It was her father Guy who, parcel by parcel, purchased Chablis vineyards in the 1950s; yet it is Marie-Ange who has brought the winery to a level of greatness for which it was always destined. There are few other Chablis estates with such a rich collection of older-vine rootstock, and as a result, few other estates that deliver Chablis wines of such character and complexity. Some 80 percent of the family’s vines today—across five grand cru and four premier cru vineyards—are “vieilles vignes” or older vines.
Estate vines planted by the family in the 1950s and 1960s in lieu-dits ‘Beugnons’ and ‘Mélinots.’ Pure Kimmeridgian soils are called “millefeuille,” or many-layered, with white clay and fossilized oyster shells.
Tasting Note: Aromas of crushed shells, incense, lemon zest, white pepper. Silky and broad in the mouth; intense citrus flavors.
Wine Pairing: Regional goats’ cheese; chicken in mushroom sauce; seared ahi tuna or other rich, fresh fish
