Rully 1er Cru Blanc "Margotés" 2020 | Wine of the Domaine De Villaine

Rully 1er Cru white wine "Margotés" 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 "Margotés" 2020 from Domaine De Villaine has a fine, precise nose and hints at mineral notes, almost chalk. On the palate, even if we can guess the ripeness of the fruit, the aromatic sensation remains fresh, almost sharp and finely woody. This premier cru is vinified mainly in wooden casks. This is a wine that will happily spend the next ten years in the cellar.
