50% stem inclusion adds plenty of floral spice. Black cherry fruit with notes of smoked meats, musk and black earth. Luscious and sweet at its core. Savoury and earthy on the finish. Very Gevrey. JH 2025
Laurent Fournier spends countless hours in his vineyards and has a deft hand in the cellar. The wines are deep and pure, driven by their fruit and develop gorgeous perfumes with cellaring. He is regarded by many, as the best producer in Marsannay and with its proximity to Gevrey-Chambertin, his wines share many of the traits with top Gevrey, except for the price tag. His 2023’s are splendid. Laurent kept yields relatively low in this abundant harvest and picked on the earlier side to maintain freshness. He believes that 2023 is the best vintage he has experienced for quality and quantity.
