Domaine Fourrier
Jean Marie Fourrier
Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes Pinot Noir 2013
This had lots of dense sappy dark cherry, berry fruits, earthy with good spice, crushed rock & violet. Full bodied & firm structure that needs a few more years. — 4 years ago
Domaine Duroche
Aux Etelois Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2013
From magnum. Had it next to the stylistically similar Fourrier Gevrey VV, but this was the better wine for me - it had a little more depth and texture. Started of similarly reductive, but quickly opened up to scents of roses, intense red cherry, and smoky insence. The palate's velvety, mix of red and dark fruits, rich but offers lots of freshness with its crisp acidity. Minerality plays second fiddle at the moment, but is evident in the long spicy finish. I bet this was how it looked like when it was first bottled, so time can only make it better. 1er level for sure!
NB: From WH - This plot is located on the southern side of Griotte-Chambertin alongside the Claude Dugat plot and below the Duroché plot of Griottes-Chambertin. It is quite strange that this vineyard has been classified as village as it’s located so close to the Grand Crus. — 5 years ago
I 100% agree
I just wanted to mentioned too how important is the terroir
No producer can make an excellent wine out of a bad parcel in any vineyard
I recall Hubert De Montille saying in Mondovino how the terroir is 10 times more important than the vigneron/winemaker
And as an example you think of Rousseau Clos de la Roche where he doesn't really have a top parcel when Dujac or Ponsot do and make a better wine (IMO) than what I consider to be one of the best red wine producer of the Cote de Nuits(I know, the other two are not bad either). Anyway I just follow those lines too, producer, vineyard, parcel, vintage, but it is never easy.
I guess that's what makes it interesting. 👌🙏
Sylvain Cathiard
Les Clos De L'orme Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir 2009
#5 of my tasting pack is from one of my favorite producers in entire Burgundy-Sylvain Cathiard. Light ruby in color, delightful abundance of red fruit on the nose with licorice, milk chocolate and after some aeration earthy note-very typical of SC. However palate is not quite consistent with nose on this one. On the palate it is lighter body than the Echezeaux from Fourrier, so is its depth. Fruits are fading suggests it's already at peak. Further aging will not benefit this wine much. Though it's probably the most affordable from SC, I'm still hoping for something better than this. — 7 years ago

Domaine Fourrier
Vieille Vigne Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir
Underwhelming bottle from one of my fav producers. Makes me wonder if these wines age well? 2008 showed more like 1998 - color has faded, nose is evolved and the palate was eluding. — 4 years ago
Domaine Duroche
Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2015
Some people say this is supposedly Rousseau lite. I think it's more Fourrier like, but without the nutmeg spice. — 5 years ago

Champeaux Vieille Vigne Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2006
Amazing Burgundy from the ever-consistent Domaine Fourrier. Lovely deep red in color. The nose has dark red fruits, floral notes, cedar and damp earth. On the palate I get cherry, raspberry, some smoke and forest notes. Drinking great now after a proper decanting with years ahead of it. — 7 years ago

Anthill Farms
Peters Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013
A little reductive at first opened up with time to reveal incredible purity and elegance . Red and blue fruits , earth , bakers spice , Violets , herbs. In the mouth there is plenty of vibrancy , with some dusty tannins and buffering acidity . If Jean Maire Fourrier was making California Pinot Noir it would taste like this: — 9 years ago
Philippe Fourrier
Rosé Champagne Blend
Alizarin in color with many bubbles--both fine and large ones. Intensely yeasty and toasty on the nose. The effervescence is intense, almost piquant. Bright acidity steals the show and sets up the palate for notes of blueberry, cranberry and a touch of cocoa that quickly transitions, whiskey-like, to a caramel and vanilla dotted finish. The 100% P noir makes this a really unique and bold bubbly rose. Stellar! — 10 years ago

Red fruit. Damp earth. A touch carbonic. First Duroche. Style reminds me of Fourrier. — 3 years ago
