From 1.15 hectares of old vines in the heart of Fourchaume, plus a small portion in the climat known as L’Homme Mort at the northern end, this cuvée is, in fact, a blend of three parcels of different aspects, age and rootstock. Indeed, the domaine’s vines extend over the entire height of the hillside, between approximately 130 and 200 metres, practically up to the forest that tops the hill. Most of the vines were planted between 1959 and 1971, and they typically produce one of the most opulent and layered wines in the cellar. The 2022, raised in 30% old oak, is true to this stereotype: a fleshy, seductive wine of great class and persistence.

Reviews

“Pale lemon colour, with a marly note. This is beautifully done, a Fourchaume with class and finesse, and just the right point of reduction. A little touch of the jolis amers, that little bitter touch which provides grip at the finish and works much better than the words sound.”
92 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
“More sunshine in this yellow citrus – and that’s despite this being the first parcel harvested. Large in scale with an extra depth to the flavour – the texture too. Impressively intense in the finish – that’s just so classy – well done…”
