Tasting Note: Vincent Dauvissat Irancy 2010 & 2015
General Impression: When no one on our team has tasted the wine on the tasting table, you know it's something truly niche. The Vincent Dauvissat Irancy 2010 and 2015 vintages exemplify this exclusivity.
Origin: Irancy is situated southwest of Chablis and has been recognized as an appellation since 1998. The wines primarily consist of Pinot Noir, with up to 10% César allowed in the blend.
Appearance: This wine displays a robust crimson hue, deepening towards dark red, enriched with vibrant highlights.
Nose: The bouquet is bursting with a medley of fruit aromas, including blackcurrant, Morello cherry, raspberry, and blackberry. There are also occasional floral (violet), licorice, and pepper notes, which intriguingly draw comparisons to the Oude Kriek from 3 Fonteinen.
Palate: On the palate, the tannins melt into a firm yet velvety structure. The wine's acidity is balanced perfectly, ensuring excellent aging potential.
Character: Irancy wines often start off reticent, keeping their true character concealed. However, the 2010 and 2015 vintages are exceptions, revealing their noble qualities more readily. Similar to a great Nebbiolo, their initial resistance softens with time, allowing the wine's complexities to unfold. They present a rustic yet clean profile, highlighting a unique array of noble characteristics specific to this terroir.
Overall: Patience rewards the drinker with this wine, as its rustic charm and noble complexities develop beautifully over time. The Vincent Dauvissat Irancy 2010 and 2015 are excellent examples of the unique elegance and depth this appellation has to offer....

2000- MOUTON ROTHSCHILD
-Thursday, March 11, 2021
With its distinctive antique bottle and gold etched label dominated by a sheep, this is definitely a move away from classic Bordeaux bottling. It is good that the wine can support the presentation. The fruit is so ripe, it almost tastes of raisins, but that sweetness is finely balanced by the dry tannins and concentrated texture. To finish, there are exotic spices, giving an almost oriental character to the long aftertaste.
Domaine Huet is an iconic Vouvray producer
-Thursday, March 11, 2021
Domaine Huet is an iconic Vouvray producer and lauded for making some of the world's most compelling white wines, including some of the longest-lived sweet wines.
Founded in 1928 by Gaston Huet with the purchase of the vineyard "Le Haut Lieu", the estate expanded in the mid-1950s with the acquisition of two additional vineyards on the Première Côte -- Le Mont (purchased in 1957) and Clos du Bourg (farmed since 1953, purchased in 1963) -- which ensured the domaine’s place in the French wine pantheon.
Keller is one of the world's great dry riesling producers
-Thursday, March 11, 2021
Dear Riesling Lovers ,
German winemaker Klaus-Peter Keller has an almost uncanny knack for consistently producing breathtakingly good dry rieslings, even when conditions are less than ideal. By way of recent example, the 2014 vintage in Germany was wet and generally challenging, and resulted in good rather than great wines across the board. But not from Keller. His were sublime.
