March 26, 2023 - Stunning juice ! My second bottle and again an absolute knock-out Clos St.Jacques from Fourrier.The nose is heavenly,pure dark cherry,raspberry,blood orange,rose petal,sweet spices,subtle minerality .... Tremendous depth and purity.Very sappy and rich,with lot of energy and very fine grained tannins,with such incredible smooth mouthfeel.This is a showstopper of a wine.

March 11, 2022 - I'm not necessarily in the Fourrier camp of extreme ripeness but I must say that this was a delicious bottle of Burgundy. Very ripe exotic cherry fruit is balanced by succulent acidity and lots of brightness. The finish is juicy and intense with notes of cherry spice and sparkling minerals. I see no purpose in aging this further as it's showing its undergarments completely and unabashedly. At Zachys BYOB La Paulee.

February 15, 2022 - Good on the nose. More giving than the Goulots but fairly shy. Didn’t open much in the glass. Will be good but give it at least a decade.

February 6, 2022 - Slightly more subdued aromatics compared to the 2011, but recognisable as the same wine. Tighter and more structured on the palate. Red fruits on the palate. Darker fruits compared to the brightness of the 2011. Shows a slightly saline character.

January 3, 2022 - From a 0.89ha plot planted in 1910. This 2012 Fourrier Clos Saint Jacques is one of the best Fourrier CSJ I have had. Attractive bouquet of Incredibly perfumed and silky. Ultra-ethereal with a flirtatious bouquet of polished red cherries, raspberries, rose petals and sweet earthy spices. High intensity yet tannins are silky soft, gorgeous. Tasted blind and guessed Rousseau Clos Saint Jacques 2009. (95/100)
