Threw a Rosemary sprig in, and it was quite nice. — 11 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. — 8 years ago
well balanced and no edge

10 у.о. vintage brut for 20€?! Yes, it's possible and that brut is awesome — 9 years ago
Terrific soaring aromas of vivid red fruits. This nose is what you want. Spice, wet earth, so perfectly framed by fruit. Really lovely and expansive. Reminds me of Fourrier on the palate. Very pure, voluminous sweet fruit, nice structure and wonderful top notch finesse. Typical nice acid of 13 with uncommon depth of fruit for a village wine. Terrific complexity and nice perky acids. Great now better in 5 years. — 10 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 — 11 years ago
My first taste of Burgundy — 12 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. — 9 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
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

Alive with fruit and crushed rocks. Tingling minerality. Crystalline. Reminds me a little of Fourrier — 8 years ago
