The 2020 Fixin Terre Brune offers blackcurrant, wild hedgerow and light cassis scents on the nose, rose petals emerging with time. The palate displays admirable depth with the 15-20% whole cluster imparting sapidity and texture towards the finish. Fine cohesion, not deep, yet it feels assured and persistent.

The domaine's vineyards stretch gracefully across the hallowed terroirs of Marsannay, Fixin, and Gevrey-Chambertin appellations, each one a chapter in the rich tapestry of Burgundian winemaking. Embracing a heritage of sustainable agriculture, Valérie and Philippe Huguenot, the dynamic duo leading this winemaking endeavor, cherish the legacy handed down to them. They stand in harmony with nature, paying homage to the toil of their forebears, and remaining deeply rooted in their family's winemaking traditions.
