(94-97 points) Deep imperial purple colour, very saturated. There is a heavenly nose behind, just delivering everything at first sniff, no need to bother with individual fruit descriptors here, in the lap of luxury, but in perfect balance and indeed a particularly fine appealing fresh finish. Perfect cusp of black and red.

(92-95 points) An admirably pure, cool, restrained and decidedly earthy red and dark currant-scented nose that reflects ample amounts of classic Gevrey character as well as a plentitude of floral nuances. The muscular broad-shouldered flavors possess superb delineation and outstanding punch on the youthfully austere, markedly firm and tension-filled finale. This too is terrific though patience advised as this will need time to resolve the prominent tannic spine.

Fourrier owns a parcel of 0.87ha planted to very old vines just north of Cazetiers. Ripe red and black fruit is accented with gentle hints of menthol and mineral. There is a rich density on the palate from the old vines and the firm tannins to carry this to the next level.

(93+ points) The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Combe Aux Moines is also showing very well in bottle. Mingling aromas of cherries and plums with hints of sweet spices, peonies and wintergreen, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, with a rich and fleshy core of fruit and a saline, perfumed finish.- WK
