Winemaker Marie-Ange Robin is the fourth generation of winemakers in the family. It was her father Guy who, plot by plot, bought and planted Chablis vineyards in the 1950s and 1960s - at the time, many winemakers left Chablis because viniculture in this cold region was too difficult. But it was Marie-Ange who took the winery to great heights.
Domaine Guy Robin boasts a rich, if not the richest, collection of old vines. About 80% of the wine from the vines - spread across five grand crus and four premier crus are 'Vieilles Vignes'.
These old vines, and traditional vinification methods ensure that there are few Chablis wines with as much character, concentration and complexity as Marie-Ange's wines. The wines are across the board; seductive, rich and unctuous.
Unlike many other 'basic' Chablis, the fruit for Marie-Ange's Chablis v.v. comes from the heart of Chablis. The old vineyards are located opposite the premier cru vineyard Vaillons and lower down the slope of the lieu-dit 'Butteaux in the premier cru Montmains. This wine is fermented and aged on stainless steel tanks.
Again, aromas of citrus and minerality, on the palate lime zest, grass with nice elegance and good energy.
