2020 Marsannay Rouge, Le Chapitre, Domaine Jean Fournier, Burgundy

Description

Since 2019, this vineyard now lies within the extended Marsannay appellation – where it belongs. Laurent has old vines here (from the 1940s), grown on chalky soil with small white oolites (a form of limestone). There’s 50% whole-bunch; the wine has a wonderful spicy lift. This follows through the classy palate to a finish of slightly burly Marsannay notes.

Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 88-90/100
Much like the Gevrey the nose is overtly floral in character with its array of spicy poached plum, black raspberry and warm earth nuances. The delicious, vibrant and nicely detailed flavours possess a supple mid-palate that contrasts somewhat with the punchy, rustic and mildly warm finale.Drink from 2026 onwardallen_meadows, burghound_com.com (January 2022)

The 2020 Marsannay Le Chapitre has a concentrated nose with red cherries, wild strawberry and earthy aromas, with a touch of black pepper emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, the 50% whole bunch lending more pepperiness towards the finish that just needs a little more persistence.Drink 2023 - 2033Neil Martin, Vinous.com.com (May 2022)

Fine deep dark purple. This time the whole bunches show much more on the nose. Really intriguing. The fruit hovers towards the black but not extremely so. Lovely aftertaste here, and the structure supports the fruit really well, just a pinprick of acidity alongside fine tannins.Jasper Morris MW, InsideBurgundy.com (November 2021)
