Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet Vosne-Romanée 2024

Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet: the rebirth of Fixin

Today, Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet is one of the most important benchmarks of the new generation of Burgundy. Led by Amélie Berthaut, representing the seventh generation of the family in Fixin, the domaine was born from the union of the Berthaut and Gerbet families' vineyard holdings, currently bringing together around 16 hectares spread across some of the most prestigious communes of the Côte de Nuits.

Despite owning plots in Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Vougeot, and Vosne-Romanée, the heart of the project remains in Fixin. Through sustainable viticulture, inspired by organic principles and a deep respect for the terroirs, Amélie Berthaut has been one of the key figures in restoring the prestige of this appellation.

The domaine's philosophy is based on minimal intervention, spontaneous fermentation, delicate extractions, moderate use of oak, and a constant pursuit of fruit purity and the expression of the soils.

Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet Vosne-Romanée 2024

Vosne-Romanée is, for many, the heart of the Côte de Nuits, and this 2024 is the domaine's gateway to one of the most coveted villages in the world. The wine comes from 1.2 hectares in two plots, Aux Réas and Au-Dessus de la Rivière, with vines planted in 1935, 1949, and 1955, on clay-limestone soils.

The grapes are fully destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats, with pump-overs and some punch-downs. The wine is aged in oak barrels, with a portion of new oak.

The profile is that of a Pinot Noir with a deep, bright ruby color, with aromas of black cherry, raspberry, rose, and violet, joined by white pepper, clove, and forest floor notes. On the palate, fine tannins, harmonious structure, lively freshness, and a mineral finish.
