Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard's 2019 Premier Cru 'La Maltroie' is vinified and aged with careful oak integration to reflect the site’s minerality and structure. 2019 in Burgundy was a warm, ripe but generally very successful year for white wines, producing Chardonnay with concentrated fruit and excellent acidity — a combination of richness and freshness.
Fontaine-Gagnard is one of Chassagne’s great traditionalists, quietly producing some of the appellation’s most complete and age-worthy wines. Farming is resolutely old-school rather than dogmatic, with a focus on balance, density and longevity over fashion.
What the critics say:
"The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet Maltroye 1er Cru has a fragrant, chalk dust scented bouquet that opens nicely with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a lightly spiced opening, touches of orange rind and marmalade lending a welcome tanginess. It might not be a long-term Chassagne, though it is thoroughly enjoyable."
