Description

The white wines of Chassagne-Montrachet can resemble those of its neighbour, Puligny. Both are tense with acidity although Chassagne can sometimes be a little softer and broader. Both show crisp apple and citrus flavours, but some of Chassagne's wines surprise with an unexpected red fruit note.

Details

Profumo

Perfume

Intense sweet and fruity aromas. First, ripe yellow fruit, followed closely by the powerful mineral perfume typical of the terroir.

1 hour

Young and Fresh White Wines

Pairings

Thanks to its rich texture and roasted flavours, it pairs well with white fish and shellfish. Moreover, its high natural acidity can counterbalance cream-based sauces. It pairs well with grilled fish, starches, butter and roasted nuts.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1980
  • Oenologist: Jean-Marc Blain
Domaine Blain-Gagnard was formed in 1980 when Jean-Marc Blain (a Sancerrois) married Claudine Gagnard, youngest daughter of Jacques and Marie-Josèphe Gagnard of Domaine Gagnard-Delagrange. The couple runs this venerable domaine with the help of their son Marc-Antonin. Jean-Marc Blain and Claudine Gagnard met while they were both studying oenology at Dijon. The estate's vineyards come mainly from grandparents and other relatives of Claudine, along with a few purchases. The vines are planted in Chardonnay (55%) and the rest in Pinot Noir, with a small parcel of Passetoutgrain. Read more
