Bourgogne Rouge Jean Marie Fourrier 2017

HED90371 75cl 13%
Based in Gevrey-Chambertin, Jean-Marie Fourrier is the négociant arm of Domaine Fourrier, first introduced in the 2011 vintage. Jean-Marie buys grapes from trusted growers and favours long-term agreements where he can be involved in the vineyard management. This is his 2017 Bourgogne Rouge, which is marked by remarkable purity. After seven years of crops shrunk by hail, frost and rot, 2017 has delivered a generous Burgundy harvest and this release perfectly embodies the vintage.

Domaine Fourrier

Domaine Fourrier

Jean-Marie Fourrier has been at the helm of his family domaine since the mid 1990s and has steadily risen to become one of Gevrey-Chambertin's most important vignerons. Having served an apprentice under the famous Henri Jayer before a brief stint at Domaine Drouhin in Oregon, Jean-Marie returned to France with a clear vision to raise to improve the quality of his wines to be the equal of any in the Côte de Nuits.

Grapes are destemmed after picking and fermentation is kept on the cooler side. A 36 - 48 hour maceration precedes the fermentation, punching down is manual and malolactic fermentation is restricted through temperature control. These are superbly elegant wines which push their ethereal fruit character to the fore.
