Highlights
- 100% Pinot Noir sourced from Les Arvelets, a steep, south-facing Premier Cru in northern Pommard, bottled under Fourrier's Vigne Comte de Chapelle label.
- The vineyard’s distinct iron-rich, red clay-limestone soils impart the wine's signature robust structure, deep color, and mineral-driven earthy tones.
- Sourced from mature Vieilles Vignes (old vines), which naturally concentrate the fruit extract, balancing Pommard's muscularity with deep, layered complexity.
- Vinified following Jean-Marie Fourrier's strict domaine protocols: 100% destemmed, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and managed with ultra-gentle extraction to polish the tannins.
- The generous 2023 vintage provided ripe, expressive fruit, carefully aged in roughly 20% new French oak, yielding a beautifully approachable yet age-worthy Pommard.
Tasting Notes
Pours a deep, brilliant ruby. The nose is highly aromatic and terroir-driven, offering concentrated aromas of dark cherry, wild plum, and crushed iron ore, nuanced by hints of violet and subtle baking spice. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied and impeccably balanced. The characteristic muscularity of Pommard is gracefully tamed into a velvety, refined texture, with fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity driving a long, earthy, and powerful finish.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve at 15–17°C (59–62°F) in large Burgundy bowls to best capture the wine's earthy aromatics.
- Decanting: Aerate for 45–60 minutes in its youth. Pairs magnificently with roasted lamb, seared duck breast, or a hearty beef bourguignon. Drink from 2027 through 2040.
