Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard 2020
Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard is new to our offering this year and what a year to bring them in. This Domaine that covers a huge range of villages specialises in whites and over the past decade have raised their stock exponentially. With high acclaim from the 2014 and 2017 vintages, the 2020 has once again suited their style. The wines have a clear purity and minerality as well as a lovely weight and richness of fruit. With Céline Fontaine and her husband Fred Robert (formerly of Armand Rousseau) at the helm, focus and precision is what makes them really stand out.
Mas de Daumas Gassac, Rouge 2022
Mas de Daumas Gassac has been the maverick of the Languedoc since Aimé Guibert planted Cabernet Sauvignon in this wild corner of Hérault in the 1970s. The family's 2022 Rouge shows exactly why this estate earned the nickname 'the Lafite of the Languedoc' — though we think it's rather more interesting than that suggests. This is a serious, structured blend built around 76% Cabernet Sauvignon with six other varieties adding layers of complexity. Redcurrant and black cherry fruit meets cedar and violet florals, all carried on bright acidity and fine tannins that speak of both concentration and refinement.
