Description
I think that the precision afforded by Cyril’s new winery has allowed this cuvée to steadily improve in its sense of textural allure and softness of tannin. Fixin is one of the least respected/understood villages, and people always overlook this……
“Aromas of raspberries, cassis, rose petals and coniferous forest floor introduce the 2019 Fixin Le Rozier, a medium to full-bodied, bright and perfumed wine that’s fine-boned and mineral, with elegantly chalky tannins and tangy acids. It’s a lovely example of the appellation.” 89-91 William Kelley for the 2019, NOT THE 2021 OFFERED HERE
“(from a .60 ha holding). An exceptionally cool and restrained nose grudgingly offers up its array of dark berries, earth and humus. The delicious, intense and intensely mineral-driven middle weight flavors possess both good richness and precision while displaying outstanding length for a villages-level Fixin. One to also consider. (89-92)/2028+” Allen Meadows ————> thingy, meaning, “particularly outstanding for their respective appellations and especially merit your attention”. for the 2020, NOT THE 2021 OFFERED HERE
