Domaine Blain-Gagnard

Chassagne Montrachet La Boudriotte 1er Cru 2011

The Blain family is one of the most consistent and reliable sources in Chassagne. Essential Burgundy for those who like rich but subtle Chardonnay. La Boudriotte is one of the Premier Cru vineyard sites within the appellation of Chassagne-Montrachet and is actually located within the grounds of the Morgeot Abbey. A typical lean spicy pear nose that is then followed by a rich, firm, grainy and almost earthy palate. There is good concentration and richness which translates into a spicy, vigorous and long finish.
