  • Goedhuis, December 2012

    Considered one of Gevrey’s most consistent 1er Crus, it has a reputation for longevity and power. This is a nicely structured wine, with strong dark berry fruit flavours, the weight of tannins support the fruit very well and it finishes fresh and long.

  • Burghound, January 2013, Score: 91-94

    (from .87 ha parcel planted in 1928). Soft but not invisible wood weaves through the beautifully well-layered red berry, plum, wet stone and sauvage scents. There is a similar appealing texture here to the lush, indeed even opulent medium weight plus flavors that display a subtle minerality on the precise, firm and impressively persistent finish. This is a big but not especially rustic or muscular Combe Aux Moines. Drink 2021+

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2013, Score: 18

    Darker fruited than the Cherbaudes and a little more spice. Tannins so fine they are already silky. Real intensity and line even though it is so refined. Great length. Delicious. (JH) Drink 2016-2030

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2013, Score: 18

    A little darker than the Champeaux. Dry and solid and crunchy. Ambitious and long term. Sappy with a dry finish. Lots of fine tannin but very crunchy and impressive for the long term. Drink 2017-2030

Producer

Domaine Fourrier

Jean-Marie Fourrier took over his family domaine in 1994 and has attacked every vintage with dynamic determination and ambition, building the reputation of the estate with astute viticulture and fanatical winemaking. He had learned from the best, most notably the late Henri Jayer of Vosne Romanée and Domaine Drouhin in the Willamette Valley in Oregon with whom he did his formative training. He is a keen participant in the growing trend towards minimal intervention in the vineyard and winery. The domaine has a remarkable array of very old vines, many having been planted between the wars. The Fourrier wines are pure and balanced.

Region

Gevrey Chambertin

The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
