Description
Despite being her most recent addition to the domaine, Beaune Clos des Renardes is Fanny’s ‘coup de cœur’—”absolute favourite”. After falling in love with the parcel, she sees amazing potential for both its whites and reds.
The plot is surrounded by forestation, with wild flowers growing throughout. It sits above the Premier Crus of Beaune, approximately halfway between the north and south of the city’s delineation. The vines are between 40 to 50 years old, on clay-limestone soil.
The wine is put through 5 days of maceration before fermentation and ageing in 400L barrels, for over a year in oak. A delicate hand through fermentation and elevage results in a wine of purity and expression, combined with the old vines’ complexity and depth, with an elegant and layered palate.
