Fixin is located in the very north of the Cote de Nuits and represents outstanding value for a Cote de Nuits red. The grapes for this wine are sourced form a single plot with brown calcareous soils and good exposure. Both excellent for ripening Pinot Noir to the fullest.
Harvest is all by hand and vinification is in thermo-regulated stainless steel. a pre-fermentation temperature controlled cold maceration is done before a long fermentation. Finally the wine aged in oak barrels for 10 to 12 months.
This lovely red Burgundy show notes of raspberry, strawberry and cola on the nose.The palate is round and harmonious with supple tannins. The fruit flavors are complemented by notes of forest and oak. The finish lingers.
