Description
Welcome to the northernmost latitudes of Burgundy, just west of Chablis: the Côtes d’Auxerre subzone of Irancy, a red island in a white sea. Historically this region suffered from being, well, way too damn cold to consistently deliver wines of ripeness and complexity. [ENTER: CLIMATE CHANGE.] Domaine Felix has farmed and made wine in the region for over 400 years. Maybe that has something to do with why this wine is such a freak for value. Adding to the mix? Organic farming, 40-year-old vines, limestone-rich soil, and a perfectly warm, extended growing season, and you have something to show the old timers who remember when a good bottle of Burgundy cost a song.
