2001 Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin "Clos St Jacques" Burgundy

Domaine Fourrier is a Burgundy wine estate based in Gevrey-Chambertin on the Côte d'Or. Its wines, mostly made from Pinot Noir, are highly sought-after and known for their silky finesse. Fourrier is perhaps best known for its wine from the famed Clos Saint-Jacques Premier Cru vineyard.

The domaine's vineyard holdings total 8.7 hectares (21.5 acres), located predominantly in Gevrey-Chambertin. These include parcels in seven different Gevrey-Chambertin premier cru sites, and a small plot in the Griottes-Chambertin Grand Cru vineyard. Plots in Chambolle-Musigny, including two Premier Crus, Morey-Saint-Denis and the Les Petits Vougeots Premier Cru vineyard complete the portfolio. Only fruit from vines older than 30 years old are used to make Domaine Fourrier wines.

Burghound 91 BH - Perfumed secondary red berry fruit aromas enjoy additional breadth in the form of spice, lavender earth and whiffs of smoked game. There is lovely richness and a sophisticated velvety texture to the medium-bodied flavors that flash ample minerality before concluding in a mildly austere and ever-so-slightly edgy finale. I like the overall depth and delivery though it seems clear that this would best be served with an appropriate dish.
