  Medium red colour, nose with ripe strawberries, hints of cherries and undergrowth, and minerality. Medium bodied, again strawberries and some cherries, very fine acidity, noticeable chalky(?) minerality, some tannins, and a rather firm finish. Drinks well now, could cellar for a long time, 88 pts.
  
  This producer usually makes good wines, but I'd say that this 2015 is more impressive and less green than their "regular" Irancy usually is, so rather much like a good village-level wine from Côte d'Or (or at least Côte de Beaune).

  9/30/2022 - henbjo Likes this wine:

  Slightly rustic pinot noir, cool and dense fruit, not very expressive, fresh acidity and grippy tannins, some wood. Some floral notes emerge with air, but stays pretty closed down. Nicely structured, I think this is just a closed phase, should come around. Lay down for maybe 3-5 years at least.
