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 particular release hails from the Grand Cru Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet, one of the smallest AOCs in France covering just 1.6 hectares of land. The appellation is renowned for producing complex and rich Chardonnays that are considered among the best in the world.
Vinous
The 2021 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, represented by five barrels this year, has a refined and focused bouquet, just a subtle reduction at play here. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, harmonious with a gorgeous smooth texture, gently unfurling with a tender yet concentrated finish. Wonderful.
