Based in Chassagne-Montrachet, Fontaine-Gagnard is a family-run wine property 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 hails from ‘Les Caillerets’, a Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru where the estate owns a 0.56-hectare plot. The 2007 growing season was marked by a cooler summer with some rain, which led to slower ripening and increased disease pressure in the vineyards. As a result, careful vineyard management and selective harvesting were crucial to produce high-quality wines.
89 Vinous
Pale, green-tinged yellow. Lemon, menthol and crushed stone on the rather polite nose, with hints of pepper and fresh herbs. Juicy, moderately ripe and tightly wound, with flavors of lemon, white flowers and powdered stone. Does it have quite enough flesh to buffer its slightly tart lemony acidity? I liked this better from barrel; today it's pure and vibrant but quite shy, and a bit dry.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2009

Oaky nose over minerally citrus fruit. Rich and dense citrus fruit on the palate just needs time to make its way through that oak overcoat. (JH)Julia Harding27th January 2009
