The 2012 Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru La Maltroie Fontaine-Gagnard is a Premier Cru white Burgundy from a challenging yet rewarding vintage in the Côte de Beaune. Now guided by Céline Fontaine, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard is a key producer in Chassagne-Montrachet, holding a 0.73ha parcel in La Maltroie, a plot known for its deep, clayey, stony soil. This wine shows density and a pleasant richness of ripe yellow and stone fruit, with lifted acidity, purity and precision.

Vinous
Pale, bright yellow. Ripe peach, flowers and a leesy complexity on the nose. A bit less rich and fat than the Morgeot but shows sneaky intensity and full ripeness--as well as sound acidity and good cut--to its peach and smoke flavors. Finishes with noteworthy length and lift, and a solid structure for aging.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2013
