Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru

Information

Description

Blain-Gagnard's Bâtard-Montrachet brings together three parcels within the Grand Cru, with plantings from different generations. Deep limestone and clay soils with red earth define the setting of this Chardonnay. Barrel fermentation and oak maturation accompany a wine of breadth and concentration. The general profile combines intensity of fruit, honeyed impressions and mineral nuances with a structure supported by tension. It is one of the family's major vineyard origins in Chassagne-Montrachet, interpreted through a balance between substance, precision and the continuity of the domaine's tradition, rather than through richness alone.
