Domaine Thevenot-Le Brun & Fils - Les Renardes

Planted in 1983, Les Renardes is a 2.5 ha parcel in Marey les Fussey in the heart of the Hautes Cotes de Nuits region. The slope is steep with a south-west south orientation, this sunny position allows the vines to flourish and produce high quality grapes. The top-soil is also very thin and forces the vines roots to get deep in the soil to find water, which adds to the complexity of the resulting wine.

Black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry) dominate with floral and spicy notes. The tannic structure is solid with nice finesse and a long finish.
