Fontaine-Gagnard is a family-run domaine with approximately 12 hectares of vines across 22 appellations in the villages of Chassagne-Montrachet, Volnay and Pommard. The estate was formed in 1985 by Laurence Gagnard and her husband Richard Fontaine after Laurence inherited part of Domaine Gagnard-Delagrange. This is their ‘Clos des Chênes’, one of Volnay`s most notable premier cru vineyards, where vines were planted in 1960. They naturally produce small yields of concentrated berries and the resulting wines are elegant, displaying a bright fruit character.
Vinous
- The 2022 Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru, which had a little more grillure than other cuvées so that they lost part of the production, has a beautiful nose with pressed violet-infused red fruit and seamlessly integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, fleshy but with ample backbone and insistent grip towards the finish. This Volnay has great potential.
