The wine region of Irancy
Communal AOC of Grand-Auxerrois (Yonne, AOC 1998, first Yonne red): Pinot Noir signature red king (≥90%) complemented by indigenous César (max 10%, brought by Roman legions) — deep purple robe with garnet reflections, signature bouquet very fruity with blackcurrant, morello, raspberry and blackberry, floral and aniseed-peppery touches, chiselled acidity, 3-10 years ageing.

The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Amylic
Aroma reminiscent of banana, candy, and sometimes nail polish, particularly present in primeur wines. The amylic taste is reminiscent of the aromas of industrial confectionery and does not reflect a great expression of terroir.
