Based in Chassagne-Montrachet, Fontaine-Gagnard is a family-run domaine with approximately 12 hectares of vineyards. It was formed in 1985 by Laurence Gagnard and her husband Richard Fontaine after Laurence inherited part of Domaine Gagnard-Delagrange. This release is their 2020 Bâtard-Montrachet, one of five grand cru vineyards located in a cluster around the Montrachet hill. Expect notes of citrus, green apple, a thin layer of herbs and minerals, leading to a long and rewarding finish.

Vinous
The 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a rather terse bouquet, more saline than the Criots, touches of oyster shell coming through with time in the glass. The palate is well balanced with more weight and density than the Criots, grippy and saline with a long spicy aftertaste. This is excellent - but serious and warranting cellaring for three or four years. Neal Martin1st December 2020
