Les Hervelets

Fixin Red Blend

Dominique Laurent Les Hervelets is a captivating red blend hailing from the esteemed region of Fixin, situated in the heart of Burgundy, France. This wine showcases a beautifully deep red color that entices the eye, hinting at its complexity. On the palate, it offers a medium-bodied experience, balancing richness with elegance. The acidity is vibrant and refreshing, enhancing the wine’s overall liveliness and allowing the flavors to shine brilliantly. Aromatic notes of dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, intertwine with subtle hints of earthiness and spice, creating a well-rounded, fruit-forward profile.

Les Hervelets finishes on a dry note, leaving a lingering impression that invites another sip, beautifully embodying the terroir of Fixin and the artistry of its winemaking.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
