The best village Gevrey, always punching well above its weight. Double decanted at 4pm to drink at 8pm. His 2012 has terrific concentration, intensity and complexity rarely seen in village wines. It shows red berries, exotic spices, minerals, lovely sous bois and gorgeous purity and texture. It finishes long with great lift and persistence. Fourrier can often be overshadowed by Rousseau, but they need to be in the same conversation.

Delicious wine. Perfume is intoxicating. Ethereal purity of fruit. More Fourrier than Gevrey-Chambertin.

Sep 10th, 2020What an exceptional village wine. Really great depth, layered complexity and a beautiful purity. Punching above its weight. Kirsch cherries, ripe strawberries held together by a mineral backbone. Finishes with great length, energy and intensity.

Great wine. Violets, wild berry, underbrush, raspberry, loads of minerality and nice acid. Thanks Doug!

Checking in on this village gevrey & the 14 vintage. 14’s are all kind of watered down from late hail and rain. This should be opened in the next couple years & cost $30 -$40 not $90 dollars.
