Tasting : This pale-colored wine has a nose of yellow fruit such as Mirabelle plum and spices. It has a beautiful coated texture. The discreet woodiness, which brings a delicate peppery toast, underlines the savory notes of vine peaches.

Description

The vineyard of Rully is located on the Côte Chalonnaise, more precisely between the appellations Bouzeron and Mercurey. The vines are planted here on gently sloping hillsides at an altitude of around 300 meters. The village is one of the most important cradles of Chardonnay in Burgundy. The appellation produces white Premier Crus capable of rivaling those of the best villages of the Côte.

Vinification

Fermentation

Immediately after harvesting, the grapes are pressed in whole bunches in a pneumatic press, and then the juice is statically settled for 24 hours at 12°C. The musts are then put directly into barrels and the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, as well as the maturation, are carried out in French oak barrels. The wine is regularly stirred in order to aerate it while preserving its freshness. The Chardonnay produced feeds off the oak barrel, bringing notes of hazelnuts.
