Ageing potential

As all other Burgundy white village wines, Rully blanc will improve gradually over a period of about 3 to 8 years after the vintage.

Origins

A village appellation in the Côte Chalonnaise, harvested in the village of Rully.

The appellation's vineyards cover 370 hectares, 2/3 of which are white, not far from the magnificent vineyards of Puligny Montrachet and Meursault to the north and Mercurey and Givry to the south.

Rully is a very old vineyard, developed by the Dukes of Burgundy. Its vineyards stretch over slopes at an altitude of over 200 metres, overlooking the Saône plain.

Subtle differences in the wines are due to differences in soil, exposure and altitude, all of which vary considerably hereabouts. At heights of 230 to 300 metres, the coastal slopes produce wines that can rival the best of the nearby Côte de Beaune.

Vinification and maturing

The grapes are harvested by hand and after pressing the grapes, a cold settling of 12 hours at 8°C. (46°F.) is made.

Then the juices were put in tank and in barrels (15% new one) for both fermentation alcoholic and malolactic and aged 10 months on its fine lees.
