A beautifully layered nose reflects notes of white flowers, mineral reduction and a plethora of spice elements. Once again there is a lovely texture to the intense, concentrated, mouthcoating and unusually powerful middleweight flavors that display excellent length on the youthfully austere and agreeably dry finish. The Blain whites invariably age well and this should be no exception.
Winemaker Notes
Old vines contribute density and concentration to this white premier cru that is otherwise known for its elegance. It has aromas and flavors of yellow apples, white peach and with firm acidity and layered minerality. Aging in 30% new Burgundian pièce brings notes of vanilla and toast.
Winery Notes
Domaine Blain-Gagnard was formed in 1980 when Jean-Marc Blain married Claudine Gagnard, youngest daughter of Jacques and Marie-Josèphe Gagnard of Domaine Gagnard-Delagrange. The couple runs this venerable domaine with the help of their son Marc-Antonin. They now control 20.5 acres of vines in Chassagne-Montrachet, including holdings in three grands crus: Le Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet, and Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet.
