2020 Fixin Les Crais, Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet
New release
This wine has been bottled as a single vineyard cuvée by Amélie’s father for many years, and remains the flagship wine of the estate. This vineyard is scarcely over a hectare and sits right in the heart of the appellation, just below the village itself. The alluvial soils, particularly at the bottom of the parcel, are well-draining. The vines are aged between 15 and 70 years, and the 2020 shows a bright and fluid texture, with wonderful drive and the energy of red fruit and saline freshness.
