Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Blain-Gagnard (Domaine) 1996
Information
Jean-Marc Blain is a native of Sancerrois and his roots in Burgundy terroirs came from his marriage to Claudine Gagnard in 1980. Today he produces wines from about twenty different appellations. The limestone soil gives the wines considerable finesse and elegance, and the marl gives them a beautiful structure. Over thirty years, the humble Jean-Marc Blain has become a great name in Chassagne, and is one of the seven owners of the exceptional Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru.
This domain’s Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot is clear in colour with a complex nose dominated by notes of its maturation (butter, oak). The palate brings a lively attack thanks to its freshness and an acidity conferring it excellent ageing potential. Its lightly salty finish promises lovely gastronomic pairings with goats’ cheese or seafood dishes.
