Bright crimson. Pure red-cherry fruit. No artifice. Dry and fresh enough to taste distinctly burgundian. Lightly bitter but well made and long. GV 13% Drinking range: 2023 - 2027 Rating: 16.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Oct 2023)

(Fourneaux the name comes from the french word 'Four' - an oven, or hot place - this is a v warm climat) Less sophisticated perhaps than the Chorey but there is still lots to like. So concentrated, such tightly packed polished fruit - there is a whiff of eau de vie de cassis - and a thicker crème de mure. Good - but arguably less excitement than the Chorey this year.

Domaine Remy & Fils
A family domaine that extends back five generations to 1853, but which Joël has modernised considerably over the past twenty years, installing new fermentation and ageing equipment. Over the years his vinifications have changed, and the wines have a lot more immediacy and precision. The quality of fruit is not in doubt, as lovers of his Bourgogne Rouge from year to year will attest, and a lot of work in the vineyard contributes to this, including leaf-thinning towards the end of the growing season. In the winery he has installed a vibrating sorting table, and the only filtering is by a lens filter at very low pressure to avoid de-naturing the wines. All offer quite striking value.
In 2016 Joël was joined full-time by both his children, Maxime and Manon. There is a renewed air of excitement and ambition here. They are moving to slightly longer élevages over 18 months, with four to five months in cuve at the end.
