rich red color, aggressive pungent nose, barnyard and reduction, cherry, on the palate tannic and tight with hints of a jammy and more modern style of fruit, a bit heavy on the oak but in time this may be absorbed fully, good length, clearly at an awkward phase but despite my lack of enthusiasm for the style I think this has a good future in store.

Gorgeous nose. All elements Not quite yet completely integrated on the palate, will get there with a bit more time, it’s all there to become a textbook fourrier, more finesse than punch.

Drank at a restaurant; initially super red fruited and floral, then opens to show more sanguine notes and the fruit gets a bit darker; has lovely fruit and density on the palate, but in the classic Fourrier elegant style; with more air it develops some peppery notes from the whole clusters; overall it is delicious and easy to sip; the whole cluster adds some complexity to the fruit and it adds a bit more animale notes with air. Good stuff.
