Nice floral nose. Pear, melon and soft creamy vanilla notes on the palate. Acidity could be a bit higher. Not super complex but well balanced. Drink now until 2028. (IG)

PNP. Not as fresh or interesting as previous bottles from the same case. Somewhat flabby and bland. A disappointment and not representative. Unfortunately this is becoming a pattern for many Fontain Gagnard wines in my cellar

Medium yellow color. Nose of pear, honeydew melon and vanilla. Rich and well balanced. Flavors were supple. Would have liked more acid to support the fruit. Not very complex. Paired well with sole meunière (especially with the browned butter). Ready to drink now.

Pronounced nose intensity with notes of white flora, yellow fruits. Aromatic nose. High acidity.

Travels in Burgundy... A Few Wines During Meals; 11/7/2021-11/12/2021 (Burgundy): Floral start with rich orchard fruit aromas, some fair tropical hints. Similar flavors. Very good weight and concentration with a long, bright finish. Very good now, just entering its peak drinking window.

Yes, I have vested interest here, but this is as good as it gets. Grand Cru level. No need to wait - just drink!
