About this Wine
Fourrier’s Gevrey-Chambertin Vieille Vigne is the domaine’s flagship in everything but classification: old-vine Gevrey drawn from parcels across the village, carrying that unmistakable Fourrier signature of perfume, lift, delicacy and depth. The 2024 is concentrated without heaviness, with strawberry, raspberry and ripe cherry moving into darker berries, fine tannins, crisp acidity and a mineral line that keeps everything shimmering. This is village Burgundy operating at a very serious level.

Tasting Notes
The village Gevrey that sets the standard. Old vines, deep perfume, graceful power and unmistakable Fourrier magic.
This is not one plot speaking alone, but Gevrey-Chambertin in chorus. Fourrier’s Vieille Vigne comes from old-vine parcels across the village, and it has long been the wine that shows exactly what this domaine is about: grace, concentration, fragrance and that rare ability to feel intense without ever feeling heavy.
In the glass, the 2024 has a little more shadow and seriousness than the Bourgogne Rouge, but it is still unmistakably Fourrier. Lifted red fruit, ripe cherry, darker berries and a cool floral edge, all wrapped in fine tannins and bright acidity. There is real density here, but never heaviness. The wine moves rather than sits still.
In a challenging vintage, this feels even more charged. Where so much was lost, what remains has a heightened sense of purpose: old-vine depth, village character and the quiet confidence of a domaine that knows exactly what it is doing.

The Plot
Drawn from old-vine parcels across Gevrey-Chambertin, this is a portrait of the village rather than a single site. The vines average more than 80 years old, with the oldest planted in 1928, rooted deep in Gevrey’s limestone and clay.
These are vines planted between the two world wars, shaped by nearly a century of weather, struggle and place. For many domaines, they would be very old vines. For Fourrier, they are simply the beginning of the magic.
Technical Details
Fourrier’s approach is all about restraint. The fruit is carefully destemmed, fermented with native yeasts, and handled gently throughout, with extraction kept deliberately light. The wine is raised with just 10% new oak, keeping the wood firmly in the background so the old vines, Gevrey fruit and mineral detail stay centre stage.

Discover Their Story
Domaine Fourrier is one of the great names of Burgundy, revered for wines that seem to float rather than force their way into the glass. Old vines, native yeasts, gentle extraction and a famously restrained hand in the cellar give the wines their signature: perfume, purity, silk and that unmistakable Gevrey depth.
Now led by Louis Fourrier, the fifth generation, the domaine continues to make Burgundy with astonishing finesse. These are not wines built on power for power’s sake, but on detail, grace and quiet intensity: rose petals, red fruit, mineral tension and the kind of beauty that reminds you why Burgundy gets under your skin in the first place.

Verified Trustpilot ReviewFAQs
Clear details, so you can buy with confidence
Is this wine ready to drink now?
This will benefit from time in the cellar. You can open it now if you enjoy youthful energy, but patience should bring more depth, harmony and complexity.
Should I buy one bottle or a few?
One to try, three if you want to follow it over time, six if you already know the producer or style. Burgundy moves quickly, and small parcels rarely hang around for long.
What if I’m not sure this is my style?
Use our live chat, or pop us an email. We specialise in Burgundy and are always happy to help. Our tasting notes are based on wines tasted by our founders and updated regularly, so you can buy with proper confidence.
How quickly will it arrive?
Fast. We ship every wine on a next-working-day service and dispatch Monday to Friday. At checkout, you can even choose a delivery day that suits you.
How is it packed?
Each bottle is wrapped in tissue before being carefully placed into our specially imported Italian boxes, tested to rigorous standards. We have literally dropped them from the first storey of our house. All our packaging is paper-based and recyclable.
Can I send it as a gift?
Absolutely. As standard, our wines arrive wrapped in bespoke tissue paper. At checkout, you can also add gift bags, gift boxes and notes.
