Note: from Côte de Près Girots and Morein, neither of which were hit by hail. A cool, pure and very Chablis-like nose also displays the classic markers of lemon rind, sea breeze and oyster shell. There is even better size, weight and power to the broad-shouldered flavors that exhibit excellent length on the mineral-driven, detailed, robust and compact finale. This is quite simply an outstanding Fourneaux, a vineyard that tends to get lost when surrounded by those with greater reputations, so don't overlook it as this is impressive.*Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding!*

The right-bank climat Forneaux, located away from the river, was among the areas least affected by the hail and mildew in 2024. Here, the grapes deliver a wine with a seductive aroma of passion fruit and verbena, and a texture that blends rich intensity with a firm, mineral underpinning. Fermentation is done entirely in tank. Should drink well in two or three years and last another 15 beyond that.(CC)

This is one of the Premier Crus here that best “survived” the vintage, managing to produce over 30 hl/ha. Tangy and pure, yellow cherries mesh with iodine, white pepper and chalk through the layered finish. Lovely now and with time to spare once it reaches your cellar.
