Very standard Cab Sauv on the nose, but the palate is more fruit forward than I expected with hints of blackberry and even a little cherry. Also hints of tobacco. Solid tannins on the finish. — 9 months ago
Sage hits you on the nose. Tannic finish, black fruit. — 9 months ago

Best aged bottle of this I’ve had yet. Really in a great spot. Last few bottles of Robinot in general have been disappointing, but I thoroughly enjoyed this. — 2 months ago
Wine #5 on Jean-Pierre Robinot Uncorked Vol. 1
Lovely, perfumed, and delicate bouquet of flowers, seawater, and peach. With time, it opens up and becomes sweeter on the nose. On the palate, it's round despite the high acidity, offering an interesting evolution with a touch of brine in the finish. Lively, electric, and delicious. It's like Gravonia mixed with Jacky Blot. A curious combination, but it needs more time in the bottle.

Pear on the nose; melon on the tongue. Smooth as silk. — 9 months ago
Floral, definitely cherry, butterscotch more than vanilla. Even a cherry Coke. — 9 months ago

really really really special. about as profound as natural wine can get. needed an hour to really get going but entirely singular. had all of the chenin tells—orchard fruit, waxy texture, structured acidity—but so much more. very pronounced herbaceous notes and overall far more savory than i could have ever anticipated. there is no one doing it like robinot. — 21 days ago
