Fourrier owns a substantial parcel of 0.47 hectares in this vineyard, which is on the southern side of Gevrey immediately on the border with Morey-Saint-Denis. Because of its location, it is a more tender and elegant wine, less tannic and more silky than the other Gevrey village wine produced at the domaine.

Domaine Fourrier 2011 Gevrey-Chambertin, Aux Echezeaux, AOC
Rating: 91

Medium red. A perfumed, spicy basket of red fruits on the nose. Silky and opulent, with a satisfying fine-grained texture to the flavors of redcurrant, spices and licorice. Finishes with a hint of torrefaction and sweet tannins. A terrific village wine.

Rating: (88-90)

Fresh, floral and perfumed, the 2011 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Echézeaux graces the palate with exquisite finesse and grace. Sweet red raspberries, flowers and herbs form the backdrop in this very pretty Gevrey. At times the 2011 comes across as a bit ethereal, but it is nevertheless quite pleasing. Fourrier has two parcels here. The oldest vines date back to 1928.
