Critics Ratings

'The Goulots is another of the highlights chez Fourrier this year, bursting from the glass with an expressive nose of rose petal, violet and red cherry. The wine is silky, saline and quite concentrated, with good tension and depth to ground its generous, giving personality.' - William Kelley, Decanter.com, 93/100 (Oct 2017)

'A certain sweetness that is missing from the village Gevrey. This should not disappoint and has real vitality.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com. 16.5/20 (Jan 2018)

'Good bright-medium red. Tight, dark aromas of black fruits and licorice pastille lifted by a whiff of cranberry. Ripe and broad, but with terrific inner-mouth floral lift and a rocky pungency. Tannins are fully ripe and fine grained. Offers a rather exhilarating and uncommon combination of cooler flavours and full phenolic ripeness. This wine comes from a very cook, east-facing site planted on a rock, which had difficulty ripening its fruit prior to global warming.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 91-93/100 (Jan 2018)
