  • Ed & Sam to dinner (Home): Mid ruby, a touch of garnet at the rim. Lovely mid red fruit and earthy nose. Fully resolved, and after a splash decant fully degassed. Properly Gevrey, the Fourrier signature now merely an elegance and transparency. Mid weight and mid length, satisfying and very drinkable. ****

  • Drinking well. Needs a little air to show its best. Mature, tertiary aromas and flavors. Rich and ripe but balanced. Some tannic grip on the finish.

  • Our last bottle and served really accidentally as we did discuss on cellaring this for a lot longer but we love these accidents. Funnier still we bought this in 2012 for 30£ Ha!
    Served blind and was a bit perplexing to start, was clearly full of Pinot aromatics but also with a richness and spiciness and definitely felt it could go a lot more. Bright and energetic still, sweet red fruit, soft earth but predominantly on the fruit. Proper wine just ever so young and we would suggest one avoids the accidental openings and cellars this for 5years more. Beautiful nose still and a good 91 for now.

  • PNP & slow ox in Riedel Burgs & btl for 3hrs prior to dinner. Ambered ruby. Aromas of earthy underbrush & spice. Palate amplifies the earth & underbrush along w/ tasty raspberry, spice & mineral. Displays the Fourrier's ripe fruit & richness but I think its has peaked. Drink up! 13% alc.

  • 2 years since we had this ( Papies 91) and Andreas who had this blind in the nose said Aussie spicy Shiraz . If it wasn’t for the soft palate and lighter colour we could lose Monday betting this is Shiraz . Bright and energetic , good wine but perplexing on the spice. 91
