The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a slightly skinny blackberry bouquet that feels a little stemmy at this point (perhaps this is exaggerated next to Fournier’s more fruit-driven Marsannays). The palate has a light entry with broody dark fruit and it never really gets going toward the finish that needs more matiere. I was tipped off about the quality of Laurent Fournier’s work at Domaine Jean Fournier a few months ago, and made a beeline for their stand at the Grand Jours de Bourgogne. Laurent is one of the appellation’s exciting young winemakers destined to put Marsannay on the map. A bit like Sylvain Pataille, his wines brim with pure, ravishing Pinot Noir fruit. They are not shy wines, but come at you with their generous fruite and silky textures. If you are yet to discover the delights of either Marsannay or Laurent’s wines, then I suggest you do your palate a favor.
