"From old vines just below Mazis and Clos de Beze, the Fourrier 2006 Gevrey-Chambertin Cherbaudes mingles tart but ripe red raspberry, red currant, and rose hip with red licorice, musk, and a prominent, saline meat broth character. Long, lean, bright, and invigorating, this clings not just with tart berries, salt, and brown spices, but with an almost peppery pungency, as well. Here is multi-dimensional, dynamic, transparent Pinot that should acquire a bit more sense of flesh on its handsomely lean torso."
