Remember Guy Robin, our all-time best-selling Chablis brand here at SommSelect? Your favorite house white just got a serious upgrade. While the label has received a sleek, subtle facelift, the real transformation is inside the bottle. When Marie-Ange Robin stepped back from full-time winemaking, she preserved her family’s historic 1950s plantings by partnering with master winemaker Lucie Depuydt of J. Moreau et Fils to launch Maison Regain. Combining Robin's ancient vineyard holdings with Depuydt's precision winemaking, this old-vine village bottling sets a brand-new standard for entry-level Chablis.

We tasted through the debut portfolio at our office, and this Vieilles Vignes was an instant standout for everyday drinking. Sourced from 70-year-old family plots planted right after the historic 1950s frosts, it completely bypasses thin, generic village characters in favor of serious old-vine density. Expect a vibrant blast of green apple, lemon zest, white peach, and an electric, laser-focused streak of crushed oyster shell salinity on a bone-dry frame.
