August 19, 2023 - There is a reason for why Fourriers wines keep increasing in price. The Combe de Moine is a beautiful example of a Gevrey Chambertin with a more elegant touch. It shows ripe strawberries and raspberries with a small hint of forest and coffee. Quite high acidity and a good length. It is drinking very well now and I see no particular reason for saving it longer, at least if ones prefer some notes of primary fruits in the wine.

July 19, 2023 - Consistent to my last tasting note. A very complex wine with wonderful tertiary notes, precision and freshness. Very popular tonight at the dinner table in Forte dei Marmi.

November 6, 2022 - During a 2012 Burgundy blind tasting dinner. Overall the vintage showed quite tannic still and with a wide dispersion between the top names and lesser known Domains. Definitely drink the 2013 and 2014 before the 2012 and stick to quality producers. TN: This together with Fourrier's Goulots aux Moines were the clear winners of this tasting. The performance was a World apart from all other wines. Beautiful nose, not far off the one from the the Leroy wines with red fruit, sweet spices, cured meat, gamey elements. Wonderful ripe fruit on the palate, with appropriate acidity and silky tannins. Grand Cru quality. The Come aux Moines had the slight edge but I am splitting hair.
