Maison Capitain-Gagnerot
Maison Capitain-Gagnerot produces Pinot Noir from the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy's most prestigious subregion. The winery's portfolio centers on Grand Cru sites: Échezeaux and two parcels of Corton—Les Grandes Lolieres and Les Renardes—each expressing the mineral depth and structural elegance characteristic of these limestone-rich terroirs. Pinot Noir from the Côte de Beaune demands precision in the vineyard and cellar; these wines reflect that discipline. Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast have rated the Échezeaux and Corton bottlings, with the flagship Échezeaux and Les Grandes Lolieres both reaching 94 points. The Les Renardes parcel, slightly more austere in youth, scored 92. These are wines built for the table and the cellar—structured, age-worthy expressions of Burgundy's most exacting classification.
