Fourrier
This small Burgundy Domaine has been producing some very well-regarded wines from its base in Gevrey-Chambertin. Producing wines in the region over four generations, there are few producers with as much regional expertise. The current vigneron, Jean-Marie Fourrier took over in 1994 after completing an internship with Henri Jayer, arguably the most legendary winemaker in modern Burgundy. There are hints of Jayer in the style and the wines are truly delicious.

(6x75cl) 2017Wine Advocate (88-90)
Fourrier's 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Clos Solon wafts from the glass with aromas of plums, dark chocolate and candied peel, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and succulent palate that's open-knit and giving but nicely concentrated. It will offer a broad drinking window.Inc. VAT£1,089.64 -
Vinous (87-89)
The 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis Clos Solon has a very perfumed bouquet of dark plum and raspberry scents; a little iodine emerges with time. The deep, broody palate is well-structured with grainy tannins and a structured, slightly tarry finish. Fine, but needs a little more joy.Inc. VAT£187.19 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (89-91)
Fine purple, the nose flirts with breadstick volatile, unless that is the effect of the re addition of the stems. Pure red fruit, some plumpness, nothing overripe, just the light volatility. Fresh juicy finish. Tasted: December 2021Inc. VAT£139.19 -

Vinous - Neal Martin (91-93)
The 2022 Morey-Saint-Denis Clos Solon has long been one of Jean-Marie Fourrier's strongest cards, and this vintage is no different: the wonderful, quite complex nose offers blackberry, raspberry, sous-bois, and light tobacco scents. Very engaging. The medium-bodied palate is excellent, balanced with fine tannins and a sense of elegance towards the finish, demonstrating very assiduous winemaking. Excellent.Inc. VAT£1,053.49 -
Vinous (89-91)
The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Aux Réas has a detailed, finely proportioned bouquet of red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit. The palate is fresh and almost citric on the entry, with a fine bead of acidity and an attractive peppery finish. Drink over the next 6–8 years.Inc. VAT£917.89 -
Inc. VAT£934.69 -
Vinous (89-92)
Bright, moderately saturated medium red. Rather wild scents of crushed cherry stomp, flowers, medicinal herbs and minerals. Offers a lovely fine-grained texture and sweetness of fruit but still in a juicy style for all its ripeness. Very good for this cuvée but there are just three barrels of this juice from 0.34 hectare--or not much above 20 hectoliters per hectare. Savory and long on the aftertaste, with plenty of tannic support.Inc. VAT£1,192.40 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2018 Vougeot Les Petits Vougeot 1er Cru has a pretty, potpourri-tinged red and black cherry bouquet that is very Vosne-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannins, plenty of raspberry confit and crushed strawberry fruit laced with dark chocolate toward the grippy finish. Lovely texture here, and impressive length. This needs three to five years in bottle.Inc. VAT£1,232.00 -
Inc. VAT£217.73 -
Vinous (92-94)
The 2020 Vougeot Les Petits Vougeot 1er Cru is well-defined on the nose, a mixture of black cherry and blueberry fruit, pressed violets and veins of blood orange. The palate already conveys a sense of energy, sorbet-fresh red fruit laced with dessicated orange peel, touches of stem ginger emerging towards the spicy finish. Very impressive length. This is excellent.Inc. VAT£395.33 -

(1x300cl) 2015Vinous (91-93)
Medium red; slightly hazy (all of these négociant wines were racked the week before my visit): Musky aromas of raspberry, coffee and mocha lifted by a floral element. Plush, soil-driven wine with distinct saline minerality if not the éclat of the Echézeaux. Conveys a higher-pH mouth feel. Plenty complex, though, finishing with lovely savory tannins.Inc. VAT£4,408.08 -
(3x150cl) 2016Vinous (92-95)
Bright, dark red with ruby highlights. Soil-driven aromas of dark raspberry, licorice and black and white pepper. Boasts lovely saline minerality and spicy depth to its sappy core of raspberry and black cherry fruit. Conveys a strong impression of density and energy and finishes with terrific dusty, tactile length. The yield here was about 32 hectoliters per hectare. Has the tannic spine for a long life in bottle.Inc. VAT£6,862.69 -

Vinous (93-96)
Bright, deep red. Reticent but highly complex scents of raspberry, rose petal, white pepper, red licorice and mint. At once silky and sharply delineated, conveying outstanding intensity without any undue weight. Utterly seamless Chambertin if a bit youthfully linear today. The very long, rising finish is lightly saline and classically dry. Fourrier told me he has no plans to produce more than 30% as much négociant wine as domain wine in future years.Inc. VAT£2,691.43 -
(1x300cl) 2015
Jancis Robinson (18.5)
Dark crimson. Dense and very deep, cool start but clearly this has grand cru character. Some spiciness. Some majesty. Great tension and raciness. Not as concentrated as some but made with real sensitivity.Inc. VAT£4,139.96 -
(3x150cl) 2016
Jancis Robinson (18+)
Tank sample. Vegy edge to this makes it really interesting. Not the most concentrated Chambertin. But really fresh and racy and almost citrus! Transparent and challenging but very long and persistent and deserves lots of time – yet you could enjoy it today. Really vibrates on the palate. Very lifted – deliberately so. Transparent and a very strong statement. Rather atypical.Inc. VAT£5,156.75 -

Vinous (94-96)
The 2017 Chambertin Grand Cru has a charming, quite regal bouquet with layers of crushed strawberry, raspberry and crushed iris aromas that blossom with aeration. The palate is very refined, beautifully focused with a silver bead of acidity. There is a sorbet-like freshness from start to finish, a gentle crescendo of flavours towards the blackberry, raspberry and orange zest finish that lingers persistently in the mouth. Superb.Inc.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-97)
Medium deep red purple with a little bit of spice. Starts gently then it really swells on the palate. All is at the back of the palate with a really classy finish, perfect tension, a very elegant Chambertin.Inc. VAT£3,206.75 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (96-98)
This is a blend of Chambertin itself (two-thirds) and one third Clos de Bèze. Glowing imperial crimson purple. The nose has it all, clearly all the nobility it should have. The crunchy mineral tension found throughout the Fourrier wines pays dividends here. There is exceptional intensity but it is beautifully judged. Some liquorice notes but above all an amazing intensity of fruit which lingers long.Inc. VAT£3,432.35
