The estate has long been one of the key reference points in Fixin, an appellation historically associated with firm, structured Pinot Noir, and has played an important role in shifting its reputation toward greater finesse and precision. Amélie, who took full control of winemaking in the late 2010s, is closely associated with this stylistic evolution, introducing more controlled extraction and a clearer focus on purity of fruit across the range. While rooted in Fixin, the domaine also works across Gevrey Chambertin and Vosne Romanée, giving it access to a wider palette of Côte de Nuits terroirs. Viticulture is increasingly guided by organic principles, with careful canopy management, low yields and precise picking decisions aimed at preserving freshness and aromatic detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Côte de Nuits Villages is drawn from a selection of parcels across the appellation, typically from sites situated around Fixin and the northern Côte de Nuits, where limestone and clay soils produce Pinot Noir with a balance of structure, freshness and darker fruit character. It sits stylistically between the more linear Fixin wines and the more concentrated Gevrey level expressions, offering a broader snapshot of the region’s core identity. The wine shows black cherry, redcurrant and wild raspberry, with violet floral lift, subtle earth and a gentle spice edge. The palate is more rounded than the village wines from Fixin, with supple tannins, steady acidity and a more open, approachable texture, while still retaining a fine mineral thread through the finish. Winemaking follows a gentle extraction approach with fermentation in open top vats, partial whole cluster inclusion depending on vintage, and élevage in French oak barrels with a moderate use of new oak to maintain balance and site clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin \u003cstrong\u003eFrance, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits Villages\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVintage \u003cstrong\u003e2023\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlcohol \u003cstrong\u003e13.0%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle \u003cstrong\u003eSupple, structured, dark fruited\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottle size \u003cstrong\u003e75cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaking \u003cstrong\u003ePartial whole cluster inclusion depending on vintage and parcel, fermentation in open top vats with gentle extraction, followed by élevage in French oak barrels with a moderate use of new oak, focused on balance, freshness and regional expression\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes \u003cstrong\u003eOrganic, Sustainable Viticulture\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55514758775160,"sku":"COTEDEN-23-BER-RED","price":43.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/6070\/8993\/files\/CDN_Village_Berthaud.png?v=1776429389","url":"https:\/\/sipwines.shop\/products\/cote-de-nuits-villages-domaine-berthaut-gerbet-2023","provider":"SipWines Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
