This is a great wine from the seductive 2017 vintage offering plenty of chewy raspberry and cherry fruit with good spice notes above, The palate is round and ripe with good firm and ripe tannins. This juicy offering will be great for young drinking but will also cellar well.
The wines from Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard 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 Céline 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!
Optimal drinking window: Now - 2028
What the critics say:
"All but invisible wood sits atop the peppery aromas of plum, red and dark currant along with violet hints. I very much like the texture of the middle weight flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension that continues onto the nicely detailed if mildly rustic finale. A quality villages."
