Domaine Fourrier has a history of more than four generations of family inheritance in the Gevrey-Chambertin village of Burgundy, established by Mr. Fernand Pernot between the 1930s and 1940s, and has now been passed down to the fifth generation. With vineyards in Morey-Saint-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, and Vougeot, totaling 9 hectares, most of which are in Gevrey-Chambertin. Today, Domaine Fourrier is an undisputed top cult winery in Burgundy.

The vineyards of the estate are mostly old vines over 50 years old, with the best Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru vineyard having a vine age of 88 years, and the super first growth Clos Saint Jacques having century-old vines planted in 1910. Both the wine master Jancis Robinson and Burgundy expert Clive Coates consider this to be one of the most outstanding vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin.

Respecting terroir and adopting a "low intervention" approach is the winery's philosophy. They practice 100% destemming, and use only 20% new oak barrels for both the highest level Grand Cru and village-level wines. No barrel changes are made during the entire barrel aging period. The carbon dioxide produced by malolactic fermentation provides excellent antioxidant effects, which also makes it possible to avoid adding sulfur dioxide.

Since 2013, the winery has established a "négociant" business, which means purchasing grapes for vinification, but in fact, these vineyards are also entirely cared for by Jean-Marie, equivalent to renting land. This new "négociant wine" includes: Chambertin Grand Cru, Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru, Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru, Echezeaux Grand Cru, and the famous first growth Amoureuses.
