Fixin village profile
Wines from this appellation can also claim the apellations (labels) of Côte de Nuits Villages, Bourgogne Côte d’Or & Bourgogne. The Fixin AOC has premier cru climats; the list shown below
Commune(s) of productionCôte d’Or > Brochon + Fixin
– for premier cru climats this appellation may be followed either by the words Premier Cru, or by the name of the climat of origin, or both
– for climats not classed as premier cru by the name of the climat alone.
The 6 climats classed as premier cruArvelets, Clos de la Perrière, Clos du Chapitre, Clos Napoléon, Hervelets, Le Meix Bas
Fixin has some complications: Arvelets may also be sold as Hervelets, but not vice-versa! Le Meix Bas may also be (and in practice always is!) labelled as Les Hervelets, but not vice versa! There are an additional two (potential) 1er crus – En Suchot & Queue de Hareng – in practice, both are incorporated into the Clos de la Perrière
