Description

Overview & Provenance

The 1989 Domaine Fourrier Morey-Saint-Denis is a rare, mature village Burgundy from an iconic estate. Jean-Marie Fourrier’s family has long preserved ancient vine material and practiced minimalist winemaking in Morey and Gevrey. As a result, this historic bottle provides a glimpse into the estate’s early low-intervention style.

The 1989 harvest was one of the warmest and earliest on record in Burgundy, producing generous, ripe fruit with supple tannins. In addition, over three decades of careful cellar aging have turned the bold young fruit into delicate tertiary silk. Therefore, this wine provides immense pleasure for lovers of fully aged Burgundy.

Tasting Profile & Sensory Character

Aromatics: First, the glass opens with aromas of dried red cherries, potpourri, and orange peel. Soon after, complex scents of damp autumn leaves, forest truffle, sous-bois, and leather emerge.
Palate: In addition, the palate is delicate, silky, and feather-light. Soft, melting tannins carry savory notes of cranberry compote, black tea, and mineral earth across a gentle, nostalgic finish.

Service & Culinary Pairings

Serving Suggestions: First, stand upright 24 hours before opening. Next, pour gently at 58°F–61°F (14°C–16°C) and avoid excessive aeration to protect its delicate older aromas.

Recommended Pairings: Because of its fragile tertiary profile and silky texture, this mature Pinot Noir pairs best with subtle dishes:

Roasted squab or quail with chanterelles
Pan-roasted veal chops with rosemary butter
Wild mushroom risotto with black winter truffles
Soft, mature cheeses like Saint-Marcellin

Collector Notes & Cellar Potential

Bottles of Domaine Fourrier from the 1980s are exceedingly scarce. This 1989 Morey-Saint-Denis has reached peak maturity and should be enjoyed over the coming 2 to 5 years.
