Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

The grapes come from Rully village, in the north of the Côte Chalonnaise between Mercurey and Santenay in Limestone and clay soil. Pale straw with aromas of citrus and stone fruits. On the palate apple and lemon flavors with hints of vanilla. The finish was well balanced with acidity ending with minerality. Very Nice! Tasting Sample.

Gorgeous. Slight verve. Vibrant acidity, soft texture. #delectableapp

Mineral, light buttery lemonness, acidity perking up, getting more delicious as we reach the bottle bottom

Dances across the palate. Surprisingly elegant for Rully. Has the signature VG light touch. Perfect for thanksgiving at Arnaud’s.

Beautiful wine - great balance between warm notes and a light citrus feelung. 2007 vintage can really be recommended.

a bouquet of sugared lemon, honeysuckle, some pine
flavors show rich buttery yeast, lemon, honey, rocky and vegetal as well. the initial acid relaxes beautifully on the tongue.
