Rouge

In the vines

Grapes are from 4 terroirs as follows: «Aux Petits Crais», «Le Clos» and «Les Clos» on silt-clay-sandy soils and «Les Herbus», on sandy marl.

These four plots of old vines are located within a radius of a few hundred meters. The similarity of the terroirs allows you to benefit from a good balance of maturity during the harvest.

Viticulture

Taille Guyot Poussard and cordon de Royat, mechanical plowing and 100% organic fertilizers.

We use organic products, and we maximize manual labor: disbudding, trimming, leaf stripping, green harvesting.

Harvest

Manual harvest in 20 kg boxes with a first sorting at the vineyard.

In the glass

Black fruits and delicate tannins.

The structure of Fixin is similar to that of Gevrey-Chambertin with a nice balance and pleasant drinkability even for a young wine.

Vinification

2nd sorting at Domaine.

80% destemmed and 20% whole cluster.

Natural yeasts, moderate punching down and pumping over.
