Griotte Chambertin, Domaine Fourrier 2020

Tasting Notes

Wonderful rich crimson purple, the bouquet has something of everything from ripe griottine cherries, through a little pepper, to some fresh alpine strawberries. Is it as noble as the Clos St Jacques ? I am not sure. Is it even more complex? Probably. Another great wine in the making. The fruit shows a little darker (in a good way) right at the back and once again is magically persistent.

The 2020 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with a lovely bouquet of plums, wild berries, raw cocoa, rose petals and violets. Full-bodied, ample and velvety, it's seamless and concentrated, with a fleshy core of ripe, succulent fruit and a long, expansive finish.
