Domaine Jean-Noël Gagnard (Chassagne-Montrachet)

Dom Jean-Noël Gagnard, Les Masures 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 15.5

Cask sample. Quite intense nose. But pretty severe on the finish and a little astringent. (JR)

Drink 2026 – 2035
£POA per case of 6 ib Berry Bros & Rudd
Dom Jean-Noël Gagnard, Cailleret Premier Cru 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 16

Cask sample. Edgy and reasonably fine textured but a tad chewier than I’d prefer. (JR)

Drink 2028 – 2040
£POA per case of 6 ib Berry Bros & Rudd
Dom Jean-Noël Gagnard, Les Chenevottes Premier Cru 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 16.5 +

Cask sample. Lots of precision here as well as quite a whack of ripe fruit. Absolutely clean and more direct than I remember in some previous years. (JR)

Drink 2024 – 2034
£350 per case of 6 ib Justerini & Brooks
Dom Jean-Noël Gagnard, Les Petits Clos Premier Cru 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 16.5

Even more intense than the Chenevottes though I'm not sure the premium is quite warranted. Lots to chew on. (JR)

Drink 2026 – 2036
£575 per case of 6 ib Justerini & Brooks
Dom Jean-Noël Gagnard, Clos de Tavannes Premier Cru 2021 Santenay 15 +

Very pale garnet. A bit raw and hard. Definitely not as convincing as the 2021 whites from this address. (JR)

Drink 2026 – 2034
£270 per case of 6 ib Justerini & Brooks
