Tall bars, big wine. Low bars, easy wine.

The story

Behind the bottle

Armelle and Jean-Michel Molin founded their estate in Fixin, at the northern gate of the Côte de Nuits, in 1987. Their son Alexandre joined in 2004, and the vines have been certified organic since 2010.

White wine is rare in Fixin. Theirs blends Chardonnay from Les Ormeaux and Les Champtions, aged 12 months in oak.

A white from Gevrey's neighbour, and a real find.

The place

Côte de Nuits · Bourgogne

A narrow strip of east-facing limestone slope between Dijon and Nuits-Saint-Georges, home to most of Burgundy's red Grands Crus. Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée and their neighbours produce Pinot Noir of extraordinary depth and ageability from plots that change character every few metres.
