2020 Jerome Galeyrand, Fixin, Les Champs des Charmes

Jerome Galeyrand is an example of one of those producers who has really made a mark with less famous terroirs. Of course, we know the Grand Cru and Premier Cru sites around the Cote d’Or yield the most incredible wines, but we’re finally seeing these less famous vineyard areas get the same care, love, and attention and, as a result, the quality of the wines from these vineyards has never been higher. His wines are pure representations of fantastic terroirs - good concentration and energy, balanced, buoyant and refined. Good farming and a responsible use of new oak. Very sensible, with great cellar potential - these are lovely wines you open and always wish you had more of.
