While we all enjoy the secretive aspect of knowing a region is remarkably better than its reputation, or lack thereof, it's about time that the wines of Fixin, and more importantly those of Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet are given their due. Amelie Berthaut is the newest and brightest generation to run the house that is the marriage of former Domaines Denis Berthaut and François Gerbet, where the family roots dig back several centuries within the village.

Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet

A fresh, charming face in the wine world, the mid-30s Amelie took over at just 25; she burst onto the scene just as she had burst back into the family estate after her schooling, offering brilliant insight and passion right away, encouraging her father to hand her the reins. 

As her time in charge lengthens, the now fully-organic domaine has captivated all that have tasted the wines; there is a definite signature to Amelie's wines, and I wouldn't venture to say that it is one of any particular taste or aroma, but one of feel - they are stylish, elegant, airy even, in the best way possible. Fixin lies somewhere between Gevrey and Chambolle for me in terms of its style - red fruit, yes, but this floral, pink-fruited component that is unmistakable. Yet that finesse, that feel is felt throughout her wines from the Vosne and elsewhere. 

In the winery, Amelie will ferment in concrete before moving the wines into oak barrels that generally are between 0-25% new; the retaining of whole clusters will be up to 60%, and though rare, sometime none at all. There is no rubric to making the wine, but in her deep, cold cellar they mature incredibly slowly which helps to account for, what was it? Oh, that feel.

The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru is very charming, bursting with scents of orange rind, smoky berries, spices and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with supple tannins, ripe acids and an expansive finish, it will offer a long drinking window.

The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru saw some protection with candles in the vineyard during frost, though still there was partial loss. The nose opens with redcurrant and light blueberry scents, a touch of incense. The 30% stems is neatly integrated. The palate is well balanced with fine grip, quite taut and linear, chalky, building towards quite a tensile finish though maybe without quite the sustain of the very best examples from this Grand Cru. Yet it is still a very capable Echézeaux that will deliver the goods for 15 to 20 years.
