Domaine Pierre Gelin is the leading wine producer in the small village of Fixin (pronounced
“Fees-an”). The family domaine was founded in 1925 by Pierre Gelin and is today in the hands
of Pierre’s grandson, Pierre-Emmanuel. Pierre-Emmanuel farms organically and works to
minimize the impact on the environment in both vineyard and cellar
The family owns 32 acres in total including parcels in five of the Fixin premier crus and the
monopole Clos Napoléon. In 1961 Pierre also purchased vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin,
including the monopole Clos de Meixvelle, Clos Prieur 1er cru, and the Grand Cru Clos de Bèze.
The Bourgogne Rouge is sourced from vineyards in Fixin and Gevrey-Chambertin, and is
matured for 18 months.
Luscious cherry, blackberry and toasty spice flavors highlight this juicy red, which is immediately appealing, and though not that complex or long, makes you want another sip.
