The 2014 Griotte-Chambertin from Domaine Fourrier is a great wine in the making. The deep, pure and utterly refined nose delivers scents of cherries, red plums, raw cocoa, gamebirds, beautifully complex, chalky soil tones, vanillin oak and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and still quite primary in personality, with a sappy core, impeccable balance, fine-grained tannins and outstanding backend energy on the very long, vibrant and transparent finish. Great juice. (Drink between 2027 - 2075)John Gilman | 96 JGThe 2014 Griottes Chambertin Grand Cru has a very intense bouquet with maraschino, blueberry and violets blossoming in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe black fruit, blueberry and a hint of balsamic, leading to a quite a structured and dense finish that just needs a touch more finesse. I think that will develop with time. Superb.Robert Parker Wine Advocate | 94-96 RPGood medium red Strawberry and rose petal on the nose At once dense and brisk, displaying a penetrating quality to its seamless, fine-grained flavors of red fruits and orange zest Wonderfully taut and energetic but also fine-grained and suave Less saline today than the Clos Saint-Jacques but boasts terrific fruit and mineral extension on the long, savory finishVinous Media | 94+ VMA cool and restrained nose displays a pretty mix of essence of black cherry, cassis, violet, spice and earth aromas. There is a sophisticated palate impression to the concentrated and powerful big-bodied flavors where once again this sense of refinement is enhanced by the dense but fine tannins that shape the powerful, focused and brilliantly long finish. This is positively Zen-like in its sense of harmony though make no mistake this is built-to-age and it’s going to need it.Burghound | 94-96 BH
