Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet

Domaine Berthaut Gerbet is a family estate based in Fixin in the northern Côte de Nuits, led by Amélie Berthaut following the merger of two historic family domaines, Berthaut and Gerbet, a consolidation that brought together some of the village’s more significant private holdings. The Berthaut family has long been deeply rooted in Fixin, a village historically associated with firm, structured Pinot Noir often sold in bulk or under négociant labels, making the estate one of the key forces in shifting its reputation toward greater precision and finesse. Amélie, who took full responsibility for winemaking in the late 2010s, has become closely associated with this stylistic evolution, introducing more refined extraction techniques and a more transparent expression of site across the range. Unusually for a Fixin based domaine, the portfolio extends beyond the village into Gevrey Chambertin and Vosne Romanée, giving the estate access to a broader spectrum of limestone and clay influenced terroirs across the Côte de Nuits. Viticulture is increasingly managed under organic principles, with a focus on meticulous vineyard work, low yields and careful picking decisions to preserve freshness and aromatic definition in a traditionally more robust appellation.
