1 in stock
Jean-Pierre Robinot is a cult natural wine producer from Loire in France, known for his domain LES VIGNES DE L’ANGEVIN producing incredible wines like Bistrologie, Le Regard, L’iris, Lumière de Silex, L’As des Années Folles, Charme and more. Aging his wines in a traditional Limestone cellar with never any sulphur added, Jean-Pierre Robinot is an incredible character and his wonderful daughter Juliette Robinot may take over the vineyards one day. What’s interesting about Jean-Pierre Robinot, besides his excellent Chenin Blanc and Pineau d’Aunis is his life in natural wine began long before he started making it, having opened one of the first natural wine bars in Paris as well as a wine publication.
Although this Pet Nat is still young, it is already well-balanced—a smooth nectar with fine bubbles. It beautifully combines notes of sweet apples, pears, and white peaches with subtle herbal tones and a pleasant hint of acidity. This is an evolving wine that has not yet revealed all of its potential, but is already very enjoyable. Made from Chenin Blanc grapes from forty-year-old vines, pressed directly into barrels where it fermented and rested on the lees for fifteen months.
