Domaine Jean FOURNIER
Marsannay Clos du Roy Village red

As a major player in the Marsannay appellation, Domaine Fournier gives wine lovers the rare opportunity to acquire great Pinots from the northern part of the Côte de Nuits at a reasonable price. With 21 hectares, 17 of which are in Marsannay, this estate produces enthusiastic, deep-coloured, fleshy and intense wines, always on the edge between richness and freshness, delicacy and finesse.

Rated one star in the Revue du Vin de France guide, and one of the properties to watch in the Bettane & Desseauve guide: “Laurent Fournier, with his humor, intelligence and delicacy, is one of the most brilliant talents of the new Burgundy generation”.

Located on a steep hillside with high limestone content, Clos du Roy possesses a mineral and salty character that unfolds over time.

Vinous (N. Martin): 88-90/100 "The 2024 Marsannay Clos du Roy offers pretty red fruit commingly with orange pith and light leafy aromas. It just needs a little more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded, quite supple tannins. Not as complex as the previous couple of vintages but cohesive with freshness ans tension on the finish. Enjoy this over several years."
