2016 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet, Grand Cru, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard

2016 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet, Grand Cru, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard

Widely regarded as one of the finest producers of this tiny grand cru, with just a third of a hectare they don’t make much. There’s wonderfully balanced tension and power, and the fruit is so expressive and defined. It’s quite ripe - think quince and greengage. There’s power on the palate, but it’s seriously well balanced.
