2016 Fixin Premier Cru Clos du Chapitre Méo-Camuzet, Burgund

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2016 Fixin Premier Cru Clos du Chapitre, Méo-Camuzet

The 2016 Fixin 1er Cru Clos du Chapitre was very tight on the nose and needed more encouragement in the glass compared to the village cru. The palate is medium-bodied, rounded in texture, plump in the mouth with mulberry and dark plum toward the finish. Quite sensual for a Fixin, this is a well-crafted Fixin that will benefit from a couple of years in bottle. - Neil Martin, Dez. 2017

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2016 Fixin Premier Cru Clos du Chapitre, Méo-Camuzet

An unusually spicy nose offers up a pretty and layered blend of plum, dark cherry and plenty of warm earth character that continues onto the rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that also display both good depth and length on the firm and balanced finish that exhibit only a trace of rusticity. - Allen Meadows, Jan. 2018

Vinous - 2016 Fixin Premier Cru Clos du Chapitre, Méo-Camuzet

close to 14% alcohol): Bright ruby-red. Very ripe aromas of blackberry, blueberry and chocolate. Dense, thick wine with strong soil tones and a saline high-pH character, with primary fruit in the background today. An ultraripe version of this vineyard but still maintains adequate acidity and finishes with a firm tannic spine. - Stephen Tanzer, Jan. 2018
