The Rully appellation, located on the Côte Chalonnaise, offers wines similar to those of the Côte de Beaune. This ancient 370-hectare vineyard, two-thirds of which is planted with white grapes, stretches across hillsides at an altitude of over 200 metres, with mainly eastern exposure and clay-limestone soils. Rully has 23 Premier Cru climats, with reds from the lower slopes and whites from the higher areas.

The diversity of soils and altitudes (230 to 300 metres) produces varied wines that can rival prestigious crus such as Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. This geological richness gives Rully wines a beautiful complexity, combining finesse, structure and ageing potential.

The hand-picked grapes are sorted and then placed in vats for cold maceration for 4 days at 8-10°C. Alcoholic fermentation then begins with selected Burgundy yeasts. Pigeage twice a day for a total vinification period of approximately 18 days.

Aged 100% in French oak barrels for 12 months. Bottled after a light final filtration.
