2023 Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet Fixin Premier Cru Arvelets #907998629
(92-94)
Vinous
Reviews 91-93 points Wine Advocate "...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. (WK)" 92-94 points Vinous "... is quite opulent on the nose with scents of blueberry and violet instead of red fruit. It is very expressive in style and gains intensity with aeration. The palate is sweet on entry with satin-textured tannins and a core of confit-like red fruit counterbalanced by acidity. A deft touch of cracked black pepper enhances the finish. Why can't all Fixins be like this??? (NM)"
