January 3, 2022 - Notes on Wines from December 2021 (Wellington, NZ): Served double blind by Mike. Appealing Chambolle red cherries and other bright, clean red berry fruit. Some cinnamon and other spices, cocoa and a little dried herbs development. Signature Fourrier sympathetic winemaking. Something I often see on 2003 red Burgundies, drinking younger (say 2006 – 2008) than would be expected. No sign of stereotypical 2003 stewed fruit, although I know Jean-Marie handled the heat of the vintage particularly well. Bright and clean red berry and cherry fruit. Very attractive but lacking the nuance and complexity needed for a bigger score. Drink before say 2025.

April 15, 2018 - Pretty, strawberry cherry fruit, sweet and mellow in the middle. Soft. Could do with more acidity.

January 11, 2018 - Dinner at Lucky House Cantonese Private Kitchen (Upper East Coast Road): What a beautiful nose it had, the loveliest on the night, with drifts of florals, sweet cherries and a twist of herb and mineral, all shaded with a bit of sweet oak. Really pretty. The palate was decent rather than great, with red berries layered with powdery tannins and earthy, little herby notes. Altogether quite pleasant, with a nicely juicy transperancy for a 2003, but just lacking a touch of elegance that I would expect from a Fourrier Chambolle.

December 23, 2014 - Nose offers up leather, smoke, spice and ripe small red fruits. Rich ripe fruit consistent with hot vintage but nice integration of fruit,acid and tannins.
