The 2022 Jean Tardy Fixin La Place is a beautifully structured Pinot Noir from the northern Côte de Nuits village of Fixin, produced by Domaine Jean Tardy. Sourced from the La Place vineyard, this wine captures the appellation's combination of freshness, depth and classic Burgundian character, offering aromas of red cherry, blackberry and wild strawberry, complemented by notes of spice, violets and subtle earthy complexity.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely balanced, with vibrant acidity supporting flavours of red and dark berries, sour cherry and gentle savoury spice. The texture is supple yet structured, with fine tannins providing length and definition through to a long, dry finish marked by freshness and mineral nuance.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Burgundy for Pinot Noir lovers seeking a wine with both charm and structure. Enjoy now with a short decant or cellar over the next 6–10 years as additional complexity develops. Pairs beautifully with roast duck, pork loin, mushroom risotto, charcuterie and aged soft cheeses.
