The superb 1992 Chassagne-Montrachet-Les Caillerets is a huge, buttery, spicy wine, with a baked-apple/cinnamon-scented nose, deep, rich, honeyed flavors, full body, admirable structure, and gobs of fat, fruit, glycerin, and alcohol. Drink it over the next 7-8 years.
In the confusing world of Burgundy's domaine names, there are many with the family name Gagnard (i.e, Gagnard-Delagrange, Blaine-Gagnard). This estate, owned by Richard Fontaine, is considered to be the finest of the Gagnard-named domaines. These 1992s are knock-out white burgundies.
