2020 Fanny Sabre Beaune Clos des Renardes

A lighter styled 12.5% alc for the hot 2020 vintage. I actually wish it was picked a day (or two) later to reduce the high toned nature of the wine. Crunchy tart cherry, currants, blackberry with a nice bit of soiseboise on the noise. Has a fuzzy, earthy feel to the fruit. Benefited from a decant to soften the high toned streak, and came off older than it was (with the soise boise). A pretty good pick up for $65 and I think would benefit from 5 years if bottle age (to soften the high toned juiciness). Think: sour cherry, fuzzy raspberry, earth, chalk.

Tried it again, as Fabio said it was open. This bottle was more open than the last, but felt like it was shutting down. Strawberry pie poured out on the nose, but nearly evaporated after 15 min in the glass. Throwing into a decanter opened it more, but never fully. Still delish and I am uncertain to try the next.
