Domaine Joliet Fixin 1er Cru Clos de la Perriere Monopole

This wine is easy to love, with its forward, plum and black cherry fruit complemented by hints of rose petals and an undercurrent of dark chocolate. The texture is dense and rich — according to Joliet, the challenge in 2022 is the freshness. He used 60% whole bunches but completely destemmed the part of the vineyard under the forest at the top of the slope.

  This classic introduction to the Confuron-Cotetidot style should prove convincing: ripe fruit, whole clusters, and little influence from new oak. The ripe plum and fig fruit comes to the fore, touched with earth, smoke, and leather notes. The wine is very tannic, but there is enough fruit to sustain this level of structure. 'I make broad wines' according to Yves Confuron — that he does. The grapes for this come from four parcels totaling just over a hectare, made in the trademark style. Keep this for three to five years before opening for ideal results.
