Antoine et Laurent Robin, Chablis Grand Cru, Blanchots, 2020
Blanchots is the sole south-east facing Grand Cru, giving a longer ripening season – arguably a boon in hot summers. Only from tank – no oak. This is clean and pure, with plenty of drive. It builds on the palate beautifully, creamy... Read More

Making sense of the complexity of the complexity of Burgundy isn’t easy.
Though Burgundy only comprises 5% of France’s vineyard area, it holds 100 different Appellations, 25% of the entire French total. There are no less than 5,000 growers, 85% of whom own less than 10 hectares, and four fifths of them make wine.

Chardonnay
Chardonnay is one of the most-widely planted varieties in the world.
Arguably not the most characterful grape, hence its common ageing in oak, yet at its pinnacle in Burgundy it produces some of the greatest (and certainly most expensive) white wines in the world.

Antoine et Laurent Robin, Chablis Grand Cru, Blanchots, 2020
Blanchots is the sole south-east facing Grand Cru, giving a longer ripening season – arguably a boon in hot summers. Only from tank – no oak. This is clean and pure, with plenty of drive. It builds on the palate beautifully, creamy and intense. Very, very long. Now-2029
Given much reduced allocations for the frost-damaged 2021 vintage from our long-term partners in Chablis, Domaines d’Elise and Fourrey, we had to find another Chablis grower to satsify demand, and were fortunate to be pointed at the Robins by Marie-Jo Fourrey. Laurent, the father, only began bottling in 2018 (before that the grapes went to the co-operative), just as he was joined in the enterprise by his son Antoine. They have inherited some 14 hectares in total, with a notably high average vine age. Watch this space - super wines here in a pure and flinty idiom - and we are fortunate to be their sole UK importer.
