Description
White wine Rully 1er cru "Rabourcé" 2020 Domaine De Villaine
The Domaine De Villaine is located in Bouzeron, south of Beaune, and has expanded with acquisitions in Mercurey and Rully. Bought in 1971 by Pamela and Aubert de Villaine, they applied the same methods as at the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (of which Aubert was one of the co-managers for more than 50 years): biodynamic vines, organic certification, natural vinification, grapes picked and sorted by hand. Recently, Pierre de Benoist, their nephew, has gradually taken over the estate.
This Rully 1er Cru "Rabourcé" 2020 from Domaine De Villaine comes from a climate located on the highest and warmest hillside to the north of the Rully Appellation area. It releases a certain complexity on the nose, marrying notes of ripe white-fleshed fruit with notes of fresh butter, slightly woody thanks to the vinification of a good part of the grapes in new barrels. On the palate, after aeration of the mineral notes, we find an aromatic amplitude synonymous with a very beautiful ripeness of the grapes with a finesse and suppleness reminiscent of apricot, fruit and candied pineapple. There are also notes of bitterness that come in particular from the skin of the grapes. This bitterness makes you salivate and makes the finish almost taut and fresh at the same time while offering a rather incredible length.
A wine to drink now or within two or five years.
