Domaine Gérard Seguin, La Place, Fixin, Burgundy, 2023

$68.00

Domaine Gérard Seguin has deep roots in the northern Côte de Nuits, where the family has tended old-vine parcels in Gevrey and Fixin for generations. Their style leans toward finesse rather than force, relying on thoughtful vineyard work, careful fruit selection and restrained élevage to highlight the character of each lieu-dit.

La Place sits on the lower slope of Fixin, where lighter topsoil over limestone gives Pinot Noir a mix of brightness and gentle structure. The 2023 vintage shows red cherry, raspberry and a touch of rose petal, with a subtle earthy note that reflects the village. The palate is fresh and supple, shaped by fine tannins and lively acidity, and finishes with a clean mineral impression. It is an approachable and well-defined Fixin that offers both charm and clarity.
