Fixin is one of the most underrated villages of the Côte de Nuits, and Charodon draws from it a structured, spicy Pinot Noir that sits closer in character to Gevrey-Chambertin than its price suggests.

The wine house

Château de Charodon

Burgundy

Château de Charodon is the project of Louis Vallet, together with his brother Thibault and father Bernard. The family originally hails from Gevrey-Chambertin, where Bernard remains co-owner of the renowned Domaine Pierre Bourée. Louis chose his own path. For years he travelled the world as a "flying winemaker", with one harvest in Bourgogne and one in the southern hemisphere, learning the craft with Pascal Marchand among others. The estate works from a historic château near Beaune and produces wines with a pure, juicy mid-palate and a recognisable spiciness, without excessive oak. Worth knowing: Charodon's first vintage, in 2010, ran to a modest 1,200 bottles. That has since grown to more than 42,000 bottles a year, an increase of more than thirtyfold in little over a decade.
