Domaine Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru La Combe aux Moines Vieille Vignes 2014

Domaine Fourrier’s Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru La Combe aux Moines Vieilles Vignes 2014 is a striking expression of one of Gevrey’s most distinctive premier cru sites. Made from old Pinot Noir vines and crafted with Jean-Marie Fourrier’s precise, low-intervention approach, it combines depth, energy, and a notably terroir-driven personality. La Combe aux Moines has long been prized for producing wines with a more brooding, earthy edge, often seen as approaching grand cru level in the right hands.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2014 shows a deep, alluring ruby color. The nose opens with dark cherry, blackberry, woodland floor, spice, and floral nuances, layered with a subtle mineral streak and a faint sauvage, earthy character that adds intrigue and complexity. The palate is concentrated yet finely balanced, with vibrant acidity, firm but silky tannins, and a refined sense of tension. Dark fruit is carried by savory, mineral, and spicy notes into a long, persistent finish. This is a wine with excellent aging potential, and it should continue to evolve beautifully over the next decade or more, gaining further nuance and depth.

Production
La Combe aux Moines is a cool, relatively lean site in Gevrey-Chambertin, where the poor soils and exposed terroir naturally yield wines of structure, intensity, and a more earthy, wild expression. Fourrier’s old vines bring remarkable concentration and complexity to the cuvée. Vinification follows the domaine’s minimalist philosophy, allowing the character of the vineyard and vintage to shine through with clarity and precision.

Food & Serving
Ideal with duck breast, roasted game birds, lamb, mushroom dishes, or beef with a rich, savory sauce. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to fully open and show its detail and perfume.

Producer
Domaine Fourrier is one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s most respected domaines, celebrated for its elegant, transparent, and highly terroir-expressive Pinot Noir. Under Jean-Marie Fourrier, the estate has built a strong reputation for finesse and purity, with wines that often punch well above their classification. Its careful work in the vineyard and restrained style in the cellar have made it a benchmark producer in Burgundy.
