Description
“The 2019 Irancy conveys a sense of joy on the nose, where vivid red cherries intermix with raspberry preserve, rose petal and light blueberry scents. The oak is very well assimilated. The palate is silky-smooth, almost satiny in texture, framing the crisp red berries, brown spices and black truffle aromas. It fans out wonderfully on the finish, completing a competent and very delicious Irancy that should give 10 years of drinking pleasure.” Drink: 2022-2035. 92 Points - Neal Martin Vinous.com
"Richoux's 2019 Irancy is brilliant, bursting with aromas of raspberries and cherries mingled with rose petals, spices and sweet loamy soil. Medium-bodied, supple and seamless, its melting structuring tannins are entirely concealed in an ample core of succulent, perfumed fruit." Drink 2021-2035. 92 Points - William Kelley robertparker.com
“...Thierry Richoux-and now his sons Félix and Gabin-prove that Irancy's wines can be a revelation. Pioneers of organic farming (and now certified as such), they realize the appellation's potential, limiting their yields, harvesting by hand and maturing their wines for two years-the first year in foudre and tank, the second in smaller oak barrels. Irancy's amphitheater of hills naturally produce rather powerful, virile wines, despite the village's northerly latitude, and that tendency was exacerbated by the warm, dry conditions of 2018, 2019 and 2020; of the three, it's 2019 that retains the most energy and aromatic lift despite its sunny style…” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
