"The 2022 Rully Blanc Clos de Chaigne 1er Cru comes from the parcel equidistant between Rully and Bouzeron at the limit of the appellation. Its marn rouge soils are apparently uncommon in this locality (more common in Corton). It undergoes a gentle pressing, and the barrels are filled at around 1030 density so that the main part of the alcoholic fermentation takes place in barrel, where it matures for 15 months. The lifted bouquet is very aromatic, with white flowers and light praline orchard fruit scents. The palate is marked by a fine bead of acidity, keeping this Rully Blanc on its toes and delivering real complexity and purity on the finish. A very seductive Rully - keep a second bottle handy - you'll need it."
