Overview

Irancy lies in the Grand Auxerrois, where vineyards curve around Irancy and extend into Vincelottes and Cravant. Its sheltered slopes, northern continental climate, and Kimmeridgian limestone and marl give Pinot Noir freshness, red-fruit character, and a firm mineral frame; César may add color and structure.

Geography & Climate

Vineyards occupy slopes and enclosed valleys on the right bank of the Yonne around Irancy, Vincelottes, and Cravant.

Soils

Kimmeridgian limestone and fossil-rich marl dominate, with varying clay content across the slopes.

Wine Styles

Red wines center on Pinot Noir; permitted César can contribute deeper color, spice, and tannin.
