Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 18 Jan 24
Fourrier's 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes offers up aromas of sweet, jammy cherries, berries and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and succulent palate with an ample core of pure, sun-kissed fruit.

Cask sample. Light crimson. Intense aroma of small wild red berries. Captivatingly moreish, sweet red-and-black fruit. Terrific harmony already. Pure fruit and firm but finely built tannins. Subtle, the tannins building on the long finish. (JH)
