Professional reviews

Robert Parker (93)

The 2023 Fixin 1er Cru Les Arvelets is pretty and nicely balanced, bursting with aromas of dark berries, plums and blood orange, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and mineral palate.

Jancis Robinson (16.50)

Cask sample. Mid ruby. A little closed but revealing a medium body, modest fresh acidity and fine, elegant tannins. Just a little reduced and will show more after racking. (MH)

Vinous (93)

The 2023 Fixin Les Arvelets 1er Cru, raised in around 20% new oak and completely destemmed, presents a very mineral-driven bouquet, with crushed limestone filtering through red berry fruit and a touch of graphite emerging with aeration. The medium-bodied palate offers sapid red berry fruit and gentle grip, with less sucrosity and a bit more grip than the Fixin Village cuvées. It is a little conservative on the finish, but Berthaut mentioned it's due for imminent racking.

Burghound (93)

There is enough reduction to suppress the underlying fruit at present. Otherwise there is good verve to the acceptably concentrated medium weight flavors that brim with minerality before culminating in a beautifully detailed, even chiseled, stony and impressively persistent if youthfully austere finish. This is really quite elegant and should age effortlessly thanks to its impeccable balance.

Jasper Morris (91)

Deep red purple. Some reduction, which she knows about, and is therefore about to rack the wine. It is not too firmly established, and there is a fine fruit both red and darker on the palate, with a long finish.
