Jean Fournier Marsannay Cuvée Saint Urbain 2022 is a beautifully expressive Pinot Noir from the northern Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, crafted by the highly respected Domaine Jean Fournier. Produced from organically farmed vineyards and made with a low-intervention philosophy, this cuvée reflects the purity, finesse, and terroir transparency that have made Laurent Fournier one of Marsannay’s benchmark producers.

The 2022 vintage benefited from warm and balanced growing conditions, producing ripe fruit concentration while preserving freshness and structure. Partial whole-cluster fermentation and restrained oak ageing contribute additional aromatic complexity, silky texture, and savoury depth. The wine is approachable in its youth yet possesses the balance and tension for graceful cellaring.

Cuvée Saint Urbain is often regarded as an excellent introduction to high-quality Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir, offering the classic Gevrey-Chambertin-inspired structure of Marsannay with elegant fruit purity and exceptional value. Enthusiast discussions frequently highlight Jean Fournier as one of the standout producers in Marsannay for quality-to-price Burgundy.
