Hailing from the renowned Burgundy region of France, the Jean-Marc Blain-Gagnard Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Saint Jean Blanc 2016 is a paragon of white wine distinction. This illustrious bottle is crafted with artisan care by Jean-Marc Blain and his wife Claire Gagnard, aiming for maximum viticultural authenticity. The wine is a 100% Chardonnay creature, born from Premier Cru vines in the esteemed Clos Saint Jean vineyard. Sourced from 60-year-old vine stock, the grape is handled meticulously, undergoing malolactic fermentation in barrel followed by up to 12 months of aging. Vibrantly typifying the region's characteristic minerality, it presents an opulent bouquet of apple, citrus and a delicate hint of honey. On the palate, a masterful balance of ripe fruit, bright acidity and round, creamy notes persists through an impressively long finish. A judicious pairing to shellfish or poultry, the Jean-Marc Blain-Gagnard Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Saint Jean Blanc 2016 is nothing short of vinous enlightenment. |

Vinous (93)The 2017 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a light stony bouquet with orchard fruit and light citrus aromas, gaining some intensity with aeration but never fully letting go. The palate is well balanced with fine depth and presence, and quite saline, especially toward the impressively persistent finish. Yes, this is very primal and sultry at the moment, though it should age with style. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune. |
