JEAN-CHARLES FAGOT Bourgogne Cote d'Or 'Les Champs L’Huillier' 2022 Bottle

Description

The Fagot family has been located in the small village of Corpeau since 1860. Just outside Chassagne-Montrachet, it is located near some of the most prestigious vineyards in the Cote de Beaune, so it would be fair to say that wine is in the family’s blood. Jean-Charles is part of the 5th generation of Fagots in the area and the third generation to own vineyard acreage in Chassagne-Montrachet. "It has a gorgeous bouquet which is bright, fresh and rich, where notes of brioche, crème fraiche, lime marmalade and toast frame the core of lemon, grapefruit jelly, lime peel, with a hint of jalapeno for good measure. The palate is ripe with flesh to its bones and perks up your taste buds with its zingy fruit before massaging them gently with the oak flavours. Its real magic, the thrill, however, is in its proportions, its balance, its polished acidity and its finesse. It’s delicious! When you need a lovely white Burgundy that is quite special, but doesn’t break the bank, then this fits the bill perfectly. Try it with Dover sole in caper butter sauce, some whitebait with tartare sauce, seared scallops with pea puree or, golly gosh, roast chicken! 13% alc. Drink now – 2026." (Vin Cognito).
