2021 Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieille Vigne, Domaine Fourrier, Burgundy

From six different lieux-dits.

Here, too, there is a whiff of herbal tea character sitting atop the earthier and more sauvage-influenced red berry fruit aromas. The sleek and delicious medium-bodied flavours are not quite as rich, though they are more precise and more mineral-driven on the impressively long and well-balanced finale. This is a fine Gevrey Villages that is worth thinking about.

Drink from 2028 onward
