The estate and the wine |
|
|
Based in Marsannay and awarded one star in the French wine guide RVF, Domaine Jean Fournier is a sure bet in the Côte, hailed by Michel Bettane as “one of the brightest talents of his generation.”
Marsannay, a rising star in the Côte de Nuits and closely watched by the region’s top estates, still offers hidden gems at reasonable prices. Its best terroirs are now on track to receive Premier Cru status—a well-deserved recognition. |

| | |
|
The 2023 Red Marsannay Cuvée Saint-Urbain is all about purity and finesse. Made with one-third whole bunches, it shines with bright, expressive Pinot fruit. The oak is subtle and restrained, letting the wine’s floral and gently spicy aromas take center stage. The texture is airy and elegant, with a silky feel and real finesse. This is the kind of Burgundy we love—vibrant, delicate, and beautifully crafted. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
