DOMAINE FONTAINE-GAGNARD

Fontaine Gagnard Vineyard
Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard has a well deserved reputation for producing some of the finest white Burgundies available.  It boasts an enviable array of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus holdings in Chassagne Montrachet including one of the largest parcels of the smallest Grand Cru (1.57 ha) in the Cote de Beaune, Criots Batard Montrachet.
 
The Domaine was established in 1985 when Richard Fontaine, a former air force engineer, married Laurence Gagnard and took over half of the Gagnard family holdings.  They are now very ably assisted with the winemaking by their talented daughter Celine.

"I’ve been smitten by the wines of this Chassagne producer ever since winemaker Celine Gagnard poured me a hauntingly beautiful Criots-Batard-Montrachet in London"
Neal Martin
 
Prices remain relatively modest by top Burgundy standards and we are delighted to offer several vintages of the stunning Criots Batard Montrachet.  These are beautifully balanced, intense, deep and complex wines that reflect their exceptional terroir.
 
"one of the very best sources from this tiny Grand Cru"
