This village bottling comes from two lieux-dits at the southern end of the commune, Aux Réas and Au-Dessus de la Rivière, on the classic Vosne mix of clay and limestone. The Gerbet side of the family planted these parcels decades ago, and the vines now run from the 1930s through the 1950s and 60s, old wood that gives concentration and perfume you rarely find at village level. It is a chance to drink the Vosne signature without paying grand cru money.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Wine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e100% Pinot Noir, fully de-stemmed. The fruit gets a three-to-five-day cold soak around 10°C, then ferments with native yeasts in concrete with gentle pump-overs and a few punch-downs. Aging is in oak, only around a fifth of it new, so the wood supports rather than covers the fruit. This is Vosne in miniature: dark cherry and raspberry, rose petal and warm spice, a savory undertow of earth and blood orange, with silky tannins and the appellation's telltale depth. The 2024 vintage was a hard one in Burgundy, wet with heavy mildew pressure and small yields, and it favored fresher, more perfumed reds; from old vines and careful farming, that translates to lift and detail rather than dilution. Give it a few years or decant it young.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe People\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDomaine Berthaut-Gerbet has farmed Fixin for seven generations and united the Berthaut and Gerbet holdings into roughly 16 hectares across the Côte de Nuits, including these prized Vosne parcels. Amélie Berthaut took charge in 2013 after training in oenology in Bordeaux, and she works alongside her husband Nicolas Faure, a cult-followed vigneron with a natural-leaning style of his own. His influence has nudged the domaine from a very classic register toward something that straddles classic and natural, with less new oak and lower sulfur in recent vintages. Farming is sustainable and organic-minded, with chemical treatments steadily pulled back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA wine for a proper dinner. Roast duck breast with cherry, squab or guinea fowl, mushroom risotto with a shaving of truffle, or a rare-seared beef tenderloin. Softer washed-rind cheeses work too. The perfume and fine tannins reward slower, more elegant cooking, and a little decanting opens it up beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VinMarket","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572304810207,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0439\/7436\/1248\/files\/P7160697.jpg?v=1784262594","url":"https:\/\/denverwinemerchant.com\/products\/domaine-berthaut-gerbet-vosne-romanee-2024","provider":"Denver Wine Merchant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
