In 2021 this cuvée is a blend of all the Roblet-Monnot premiers crus, post the big freeze. They were vinified apart and then assembled. Darker centre and lighter rim. Beautifully perfumed. White pepper and fresh strawberry with 30% whole bunch. Gorgeous long finish. Drink from 2027-2034. Tasted May 2024.
