Tasting notes
Bursting with aromas of red berries, peonies and orange rind, the 2020 Fixin Vieilles Vignes is medium-bodied, bright and charming, with melting tannins and a long, fragrant finish. It was vinified with some 70% whole bunches this year.

The 2020 Fixin Vieilles Vignes, which comes from two parcels averaging 70-years, utilising 70% whole bunch, has a well-defined bouquet with sous-bois and light chalky notes percolating through the bright black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, fine acidity, taut and fresh with a lively but very controlled finish. Very fine, very classy.
