Chassagne-Montrachet is famous for its whites, but the village made red wine first, and the reds from its premier crus remain one of Burgundy's best-kept secrets. Clos Saint-Jean is among the most accessible of these — a 1er Cru that ripens its Pinot fully and tends to drink earlier than its neighbors. Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard, run by Richard Fontaine and Laurence Gagnard with daughter Céline now involved, is a top-tier Chassagne address with grand cru holdings in Bâtard and Criots, and they bring the same precision to their reds. The 2017 vintage was a classical, balanced year. Eight years in, the wine has shed its early tightness and entered its drinking window with juicy red fruit, gentle structure, and the stony Chassagne signature.
