Some people say this is supposedly Rousseau lite. I think it's more Fourrier like, but without the nutmeg spice. — 6 years ago

Alive with fruit and crushed rocks. Tingling minerality. Crystalline. Reminds me a little of Fourrier — 7 years ago

#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. — 8 years ago

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: — 10 years ago

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. — 5 years ago

Metallic, sweet spices, dried cranberry and strawberries, sweet and cool. Has plenty depth and sappiness for the plot and vintage. Very Duroche/Fourrier like. — 6 years ago

Young, but drinking so well with beautiful, pure, dark red cherry fruit. Nice tartness with that Morey earth in the background. No one in Burgundy captures such pure and delicious fruit flavors like Fourrier does. Can't wait to try the next bottle 5 years down the road. — 7 years ago

This had a floral elegance with lots of black cherry, a deep core of mineral, game, iron, dried herbs & violet. The Somm recommended doing the Fourrier shake because of his usage of co2 where she opens the btl and then puts the cork back in, turns the btl upside down & vigorously shakes the btl. She then pulls the cork back out & there is a sound of spritz. Seemed to be effective. — 8 years ago

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! — 11 years ago

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. — 6 years ago

One of the best pinot I've had from Down Under so far | William Downie spent some time in Burgundy, having worked at Domaine Fourrier in Gevrey Chambertin and Hubert Lignier in Morey St Denis. In 2003 he started his eponymous label in Victoria | 2012 William Downie Gippsland — 10 years ago
