  • Goedhuis, January 2007

    Fruit forward with nuances of vanilla spice and pronounced red berry fruits and damson plums. Thismedium-bodied wine is round and voluptuous with silky, pretty tannins that are guided by its linear acidity. Finishes long. Superb.

  • Burghound, January 2007, Score: 89

    An exceptionally fresh nose of earth, crushed dark berry and forest floor aromas precede vibrant, intense and full-bodied flavors that do a slow build from the mid-palate to a driving and admirablypersistent finish. This has solid grip yet there is nothing ham-fisted or inelegant about it and the obvious underlying tension only adds to the appeal. Solid if not sensational quality here. 89/2009+

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2007, Score: 17.5

    Quite pale, this wine was still finishing its malolactic fermentation! Very handsome aromas and lighteness of touch. Really airborne. Lively, hint of ocoffee. Exciting and pure, this wine really scrubs the palate clean.

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.
