  • 2011 Jean-Marie Fourrier Clos Vougeot Vieilles Vignes - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru (6/21/2013) Pure and exciting nose of blackcherries, strawberries and chocolate-drenched plums. The palate was lush and round showing amazing density, balance and definition. With amazingly refined elegance on the very long lingering finish. Incredible showing of this CV so pure with such a signature style, in a word, delicious! (93-94 pts.)

Jean-Marie Fourrier has in 2011 introduced a micro-negoce range of three new wines. They have to be from old vines, from winemakers not growers, preferably organically grown, biodynamic in the case of the Clos Vougeot.

• 2011 Jean-Marie Fourrier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Echanges.
• 2011 Jean-Marie Fourrier Clos Vougeot v.v.
• 2011 Jean-Marie Fourrier Echezeaux v.v.
• 2012 Jean-Marie Fourrier Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Chaumes. -maybe- ???
