This village-level Fixin is supple and silky, with an elegant bright cherry and pomegranate fruit with an edge of violets. The texture is balanced if not hugely deep, but the wine has an eminently charming finesse. It is produced from the purchased fruit, but always the same parcels in the village of Fixey, including the lieux-dits Le Clos and Les Herbues. It has been racked into tank and should be bottled soon. It will drink on release and has the balance to hold for several years.
Burghound
Les Herbues and En Olivier. Cool and airy aromas include those of herbal tea, red currant and a hint of the sauvage. The sleek, vibrant and delicious middleweight flavors exude evident minerality on the detailed, youthfully austere and firm finale. This compact and serious effort will require at least some cellaring as it's tightly wound.
Vinous
The 2022 Fixin Village, which sees no new oak, has a lovely bouquet of red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins, but there is nice crunchy red fruit here. It is a little austere on the finish, yet there is pleasing salinity. Drink over the next four to six years.
