Mongeard Mugneret Fixin 2022 AOC 0.75l

Mongeard-Mugneret Fixin 2022 AOC Fixin, a 0.75-liter bottle, is a wine that immediately presents itself as an authoritative step into the Côte de Nuits heritage, where the terroir expresses itself through a balance of fruit, minerality, and a tension that promises longevity. The Mongeard-Mugneret winery, a family of winemakers now managed with wisdom and continuity, builds its identity on obsessive care for the vineyard, a sober analysis of yields, and a winery committed to a minimal intervention philosophy, placing the dignity of the soil and the ability to express a distinctive personality over time at its core. The production philosophy emphasizes gentle harvest management, meticulous fermentation, balanced maturation between different containers, and clean bottling, which preserves freshness and purity without aesthetic constraints. This gives Fixin 2022 a restrained aromatic palette, where the line between red fruit, spicy notes, and a light mineral trail is defined but never invasive. Compared to other expressions of the region, this wine stands out for its elegant texture, the precision of a red wine that glides across the palate with well-integrated tannins, and a savory finish that continues without losing the temptation to return. Upon initial contact, notes of cherry and raspberry intertwine with hints of underbrush and black pepper, while in the mid-palate, the acidic kick supports the wine's vitality and allows it to evolve gracefully in the glass, offering a progression that adapts to a range of dishes from rustic delicacies to medium-complexity preparations. The wine's role in the producer's range is to offer a gateway to Fixin's terroir without sacrificing the stylistic coherence that characterizes the entire collection; Mongeard-Mugneret offers a sensory journey that invites you to rediscover the stability of the terroir, the working philosophy, and the patience that translates into bottles capable of evolving over time. In keeping with the STELT positioning, it is understated, elegant, and rich in a sense of place.
