Domaine Fourrier is a famed Burgundy estate with holdings across many of its most prestigious villages and vineyards, most notably in Gevrey-Chambertin. Though founded in the 1930s, it is under the direction of Jean-Marie Fourrier who took over in the 1960s that the domaine's reputation has grown to be one of the most highly-prized in Burgundy.

The Clos Solon is from a half hectare plot of Pinot Noir vines plated in 1961 and vinified with approximately 15% new oak. from the 2016 vintage, this is gloriously lifted and open with gorgeous red berries, sous bois, tobacco spice and game all wrapped up in a silky smooth but long mouthfeel.
