There is a joyful and perky, redder line to the fruit -than the Chorey and a higher toned feel. Always more refined and elegant in the glass. This is a beauty. Classic lines and grace- but that house injection of joy keeps this really hard to resist. Fruit is nicely ripe and and plump at the core, (the name 'Fourneaux' comes from the french word 'Four' - an oven, or hot place - this is a v warm climat) L&S (Oct 2023)

Cask sample. Mid crimson. So scented it is both red-fruited and a touch floral. Extreme finesse, finest of tannins, perfect balance, with a long, dry finish. Drinking range: 2025 - 2030 Rating: 16.5 Julia Harding MW, www.JancisRobinson.com (Feb 2024)
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.
