Bright mid crimson. The nose suggests a little darker fruit but is hard to tease out. Indeed, on the palate there are some black fruit notes joining the vigorous dark red fruit, still with good acidity. There is more to this wine than Goulots, but it will take more time to emerge. Drink from 2031-2037.

Domaine Fourrier is one of the Côte de Nuits’ most respected domaines, with history dating back to the 1930s when Fernand Pernot began acquiring vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin. The domaine became known as Pernot-Fourrier after Fernand’s nephew, Jean-Claude Fourrier, took over in the late 1960s and expanded holdings into Chambolle, Morey, and Vougeot - which remain the backbone of the estate today.

In 1994, Jean-Marie Fourrier, took over from his father, Jean-Claud at the age of 23, after formative experiences working with Henri Jayer (he made the legendary 1989 vintage with Jayer alongside Emmanuel Rouget), followed by an internship at Domaine Drouhin in Oregon. Since then, he has transformed the domaine into a benchmark address for expressive, terroir-transparent Burgundy.
