Fourth generation vintners, brothers Frederic and larger-than-life, rugby loving Mannou Humbert took over the family estate from their father in 1989. Well connected in the Gevrey-Chambertin community, they are cousins to the Dugats up the road, their holdings extend to top sites in Gevrey as well as its northern neighbor, the lesser known and often undervalued, Fixin.
