Domaine Henri Rebourseau Gevrey-Chambertin Fonteny Premier Cru 2021

Domaine Henri Rebourseau Gevrey-Chambertin Fonteny Premier Cru 2021 is a Pinot Noir from the Fonteny Premier Cru climat in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. The domaine’s 0.8-hectare parcel sits at the bottom of the slope, protected from northern winds and rooted in shallow crinoidal limestone. Plantings date to 1970, 1986, 1988, and 1989. The domaine characterizes 2021 as a demanding winemaker’s vintage that yielded Pinot Noir marked by finesse and freshness. This exact release is one 750 mL bottle at 13.5% ABV / 27 proof.

Fonteny stretches between Les Ruchottes and the lower Combe de Lavaux, with limestone lying less than 15 centimeters below the surface in places. Domaine Henri Rebourseau links the parcel’s sheltered position and generous lower-slope soils to the vineyard’s vigor. The 2021 technical sheet presents the wine as delicate, elegant, and classically Burgundian. The bottle’s neck shield clearly carries the 2021 vintage, while the main label identifies Gevrey-Chambertin, Fonteny Premier Cru, and Domaine Henri Rebourseau.
