Critics Ratings
'Tasted blind in Hong Kong, it had been several years since I last tasted the Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru les Cherbaudes from Jean-Marie Fourrier. There is a touch of struck match on the nose that is quite high-toned for Jean-Marie, the fruit much darker when juxtaposed against Rousseau's Clos Saint Jacques '02 (for example). The palate is medium-bodied with touches of orange peel and bell pepper infusing the black fruit. It is nicely balanced, although you feel that a couple more years in bottle will do this no harm at all. Very fine.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 91+/100 (April 2015)
'From the south of the village, this wine is rather paler and lighter on the palate with lots of jewel-like fruit. Racy but a lighter style of burgundy - for drinking with white meat?' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Aug 2007)
