Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru-' La Maltroie' 2024

Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru 'La Maltroie' 2024 is an exceptional Premier Cru white Burgundy originating from the historic 'La Maltroie' climat located right near the heart of the village of Chassagne-Montrachet. Positioned on clay-limestone soils, this site yields a wine that seamlessly balances rich fruit intensity with refined structural elegance. Crafted with indigenous yeast fermentation and matured in French oak barrels (around 30% new), the bouquet presents alluring notes of fresh white peach, lemon curd, acacia blossom, and crushed gravel, paired with subtle hints of toasted hazelnut. On the palate, it exhibits a creamy, mouth-filling texture complemented by vibrant citrus acidity, underlying salinity, and a long, persistent, mineral-tinged finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with butter-poached lobster, pan-seared sea scallops, roasted sea bass with lemon-herb butter, creamy chicken breast, or aged Comté cheese.
