This plot was once considered in the same breath as Chambertin and other great sites, so it now constitutes a real bargain. It is fruit, flamboyant, and fragrant in 2019, bursting with the scent of crushed raspberries. There is some stony minerality on the palate and delicious, crunchy little tannins. Bright and enticing.
The 2019 Fixin Clos de la Perrière 1er Cru is harvested several times to create a mix of different plots around this monopole. I found this very reduced on the nose when I tasted it at Bichot. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, and well balanced, offering dark berry fruit laced with clove and bay leaf. Elegant on the finish. I am positive this will evolve into a fine Fixin.
