Dampt Freres, Irancy, Burgundy, France, 2019

Drinking Window: 2023 – 2029
This well-regarded Chablis-based winery has hit the bullseye with their 2019 Irancy. Both elegant and firm, it displays the alluring Burgundian sensibility of what I call, flavour without weight. A floral element complements its red-fruited profile. There’s a delectable sense of minerality and an appealing whiff of bitterness in the finish, elements difficult to capture in a hot vintage. It’s a remarkable wine, especially considering that the vines are only five years old.
