Wine Description

Domaine Gagnard-Delagrange was created in 1959 with the marriage of Jacques Gagnard to Marie-Josèphe Delagrange. After the death of Jacques in 2009, Marie-Josèphe runs the domaine with the help of their grandson, Marc-Antonin Blain. Marc-Antonin worked in the cellar alongside Jacques for three years and learned the traditional style that Gagnard-Delagrange is known for.

Most of the vineyards of Gagnard-Delagrange have been handed down to their two daughters. The domaine, however, retains 7.4 acres of premier crus in Chassagne-Montrachet as well as two small parcels that Marie-Josèphe tends herself: Chassagne Village and a small vineyard of Passetoutgrain called Les Farges.

Chassagne-Montrachet La Boudriotte 1er Cru is located on the grounds of the Morgeot Abbey and is technically a subsection of Morgeot. Boudriotte itself is made up of six individual lieux-dits, all of which may also be bottled as Morgeot 1er Cru. Gagnard-Delagrange makes nine barrels of La Boudriotte, blending from old vines in three different sections of this gently sloping, east-facing vineyard.

Acclaim
“This is creamy, with an opulent texture wrapping the peach, apple, lemon cake, spice and mineral flavors. Unfolds with care, extending the finish and leaving a long aftertaste of lemon, butterscotch and spice.”
— Wine Spectator, May 2017
