Description
| This is (hopefully for Fanny) a one-off cuvée, rescued from the disaster that was the 2024 vintage. Because there were so few grapes to harvest she made a decision to blend the Pinot Noir from what would normally be her Bourgogne Rouge, which comes from 3 plots which once were Pommard but were declassified after World War II, with what would normally have been the Pommard, Volnay and the Beaune Clos des Renardes Rouge. It is the first time she has done anything like this but, talking to her, a week after it was bottled last July she was very happy with it. As she described it, each vineyard has brought its best quality to the wine – structure from Pommard, prettiness from Volnay, and sweetness from Clos des Renardes. There is an elegance to this wine which makes it an outstanding Bourgogne Rouge. Its black label symbolises the bleakness which caused it to exist. ABV 12.5%
