However, for this vintage, they have used only their precious Pineau d’Aunis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pineau d’Aunis, is a highly sought-after grape variety that is found on the north side of the Loire River roughly between the towns Orléans and Angers. It is an amazing grape variety which provides complexity and a very slight bitterness at the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are sourced from vineyards in the Jasnieres appellation but they do not seek endorsement from the appellation committee, preferring to label the wine as Vin de France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine is very delicious and has almost an onion skin colour from the Pineau d’Aunis grapes. The alcohol content is a very pleasant 10%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever this doesn’t detract from the trademark complexity and depth of flavour of wines produced by Jean-Pierre. It has a fine bead and lasts for a long time on the back palate.

Their wines are featured in top wine bars across Paris, Copenhagen, and New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eBefore winemaking, Robinot ran one of Paris's first natural wine bars (l'Ange Vin) and co-founded the influential magazine Rouge et Blanc. In 2000, he returned to his childhood village of Chahaignes, purchasing 7 hectares across 10 parcels near Tours and Le Mans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eThe family grows Chenin Blanc and the rare local variety Pinot d'Aunis, which produces spicy, herbal wines similar in weight to Pinot Noir. They ferment naturally (sometimes over a year) in ancient hillside cellars, aging wines in old barrels for up to 5+ years until perfectly ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eThey operate two labels: Les Vignes de l'Ange Vin (from their own organic\/biodynamic vineyards) and L'Opera des Vins (from like-minded grower friends). Their patient approach to winemaking, refusing to rush wines to market, consistently produces exceptional results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSnapshot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRegion: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e Loire Valley\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCountry: France\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlcohol: 10%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVintage: 2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 750ml\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClosure: Crown Seal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarieties: Pineau d'Aunis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStyle: Pétillant Naturel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean-Pierre Robinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48314173292793,"sku":null,"price":110.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2650\/0856\/files\/Bottle_Image_5bc05284-b9ff-4893-9d5d-2b2a6037739f.jpg?v=1776922321","url":"https:\/\/actofwine.com.au\/products\/2023-jean-pierre-robinot-les-annees-folles-pet-nat","provider":"Act of Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
