J. Fournier Marsannay Trois Terres Vieilles Vignes

Domaine Jean Fournier

Trois Terres - Vieilles Vignes 2019

Marsannay AOC

France - Bourgogne

Laurent Fournier manages 16 hectares of vines on the prestigious terroirs of Marsannay and Gevrey-Chambertin. After having been a pioneer in the field of integrated farming, the Domaine Jean Fournier switched to organic farming in 2008.
The Domaine Jean Fournier is a new generation of talented organic winemakers and is now considered one of the highest quality estates in the Côte d'Or.
                

For this rare cuvée, "Trois Terres - Vieilles vignes", Laurent Fournier combines three different climates of the estate (Grands Vignes, Charme aux Prêtres and Grasses-Tête) to create a cuvée of great emotion from terroir with Comblanchien limestone soils (Marnes à Oestra acuminata).
