From 2020 base, disgorged February 2022, 41% reserve perpetuelle. Majority Meunier with a bit of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Rather deep golden in color, with clear oxidative notes, brioche, nuts. I liked it better with the oysters than stand alone
[Restaurant purchase] no detailed notes; lemon, grapefruit, a leesy note, pear, yellow apple. Medium+ acidity, medium+ finish. A great wine, very Burgandian, but from a cooler climate. Great value as well. 91+(+?)
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
[Restaurant purchese] No detailed notes. My first Fourrier; what an utterly delicious wine! Not necessarily the most complex wine there is (even after 11 years), but it makes it up (and even more) by being so extremely drinkable and enjoyable. Red fruit, floral, coca cola, earth. Lovely depth and persistence!
