2020 Fixin, Clos de la Perrière, 1er Cru, Albert Bichot

New release

This plot was once considered in the same breath as Chambertin and other great sites, so it now constitutes a real bargain. It is crunchy, vibrant, and spilling over with abundant raspberry aromas, with a light, sophisticated vegetal note, giving the red fruit freshness a savoury precision.

Tasting notes

The 2020 Fixin Clos de la Perrière 1er Cru has a light, slightly stemmy bouquet with dark berry fruit laced with tobacco notes. The palate is smooth on the entry, quite fleshy with red berry fruit. I am not sure that the whole bunch quite gels with this Fixin at the moment. Let’s see once this is in bottle.
