Marc Antonin Blain, Batard Montrachet Grand Cru 2016

Description

About the Producer

After wine studies in Beaune, Marc-Antonin worked vintages at Giaconda and Cullen in Australia, then Carrick in New Zealand. He now makes wines from vineyards previously tended by his late grandfather, Jacques Gagnard-Delagrange. Spanning 1.16 ha the Domaine is divded amongst four appellations including Batard Montrachet. Marc-Antonin’s cellar is colder than that of his Blain-Gagnard parents, and his wines often spend extra months in barrel before bottling, so their complexities are different. He is one of the most modest, but also talented, members of the emerging generation of Burgundy growers.
