100% Chardonnay from Fontaine-Gagnard's Les Caillerets holdings. Gently pressed, fermented in oak with native yeasts, aged on lees for 12 months in barrel, then 5 months in tank before bottling. New oak runs at approximately one-third, consistent with premier cru treatment across the domaine. The 2024 vintage was cool, and Caillerets responds particularly well to cool years: the chalky, taut structure of the site comes into full relief without the warmth that can soften it in riper vintages. This shows lemon pith, crushed limestone, fresh almond, and white flowers on the nose; the palate is precise and angular with a saline, electric finish that pulls through to a long close. This is the best candidate for cellaring in the village premier cru lineup. Give it five to ten years if you can. Small quantity produced in 2024.
