Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru, Morgeot Rouge, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard, 2021

Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard is new to our offering this year and what a year to bring them in. This Domaine that covers a huge range of villages specialize in whites and over the past decade have raised their stock exponentially. With high acclaim from the 2014 and 2017 vintages, the 2020 has once again suited their style. The wines have a clear purity and minerality as well as a lovely weight and richness of fruit. The focus and precision is what makes them really stand out and with Celine Fontaine and her husband Fred Robert (formerly of Armand Rousseau) at the helm, you best keep a close eye on how high this Domaine will climb!

The 2021 Chassagne Montrachet Morgeots 1er Rouge has a slightly more confit-like bouquet with raspberry jam and Morello cherry scents, fine delineatino and a little more sumptuous than its peers. The palate is medium bodied with a touch of black pepper and fine grip on the finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle.
