Established in 1977 with just over one hectare of vines, this estate has become one of the most prestigious on the Burgundy wine scene. Over the years, the family business has grown considerably and is now run by Philippe Charlopin. The winemaker has also been in charge of vinification at the Domaine de Fixin since 2006. Philippe cultivates 25 hectares of vines on his estate, spread over the emblematic terroirs of the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Chablis. Located in Gevrey-Chambetin, the vineyard showcases this exceptional terroir through traditional, natural viticulture. Once harvested, the grapes are vinified with low-intervention winemaking methods and minimal doses of sulphur. With a wealth of experience working with the greatest names in Burgundy, Philippe enjoys letting his wines express themselves and reflect the terroir. Philippe, with the help of his son Yann over the last few years, produces remarkable, beautifully balanced cuvées that reflect the many distinctive qualities of the region’s finest appellations.

Fixin Clos de Fixey produced by Philippe Charlopin is a red wine made from a plot of around 1.2 hectares lying on clay-limestone soil typical of the Côte de Nuits, rich in marl. The vinification process begins with cold maceration to extract the aromas and colour, followed by fermentation in stainless steel vats. The juice is then matured in French oak casks for 12 to 18 months, with 20–30% new wood, adding silky tannins and complexity.
This nectar reveals intense aromas of ripe red fruit, black cherry and undergrowth, combined subtle hints of spice and vanilla. On the palate, it is characterised by a fine structure, freshness and persistent length, with flavours of black fruit, liquorice and a light minerality. This elixir offers superb ageing potential, and will improve with age.
