RULLY 1er CRU, Mont-Palais Blanc
Chardonnay 100%
The vineyard of Rully is located in the south of cote de Beaune on clayey-chalky soils. The wine is fermented and aged in oak barrels during 18 months. Then the wine is bottled after a light filtration.
A gold colour. Aromas of peach and apricot on both nose and palate. This wine is delicate and perfumed with a rich and pleasant final.
To serve at 12°C with fish or shellfish.
(AM=88-91) An attractively fresh and relatively high-toned nose reveals notes of green apple, pear and citrus where the latter element is picked up by the notably succulent, indeed borderline opulent, flavors that display good power and drive on the dense, serious and moderately firm finale.
