Vincent Dureuil-Janthial Rully Blanc 2015

Vincent Dureuil-Janthial Rully Blanc is the domaine's village Chardonnay, assembled from parcels across the commune.

Rully sits where the Côte de Beaune gives way to the Côte Chalonnaise, and white wine is its main business, grown on limestone and marl slopes at a slightly higher, cooler elevation than the villages to the north. Vincent Dureuil-Janthial farms around eighteen hectares here and is widely held to set the standard. This wine blends several village parcels, hand picked at low yields, whole-bunch pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts in barrel. It then spends about a year on lees in mostly used wood, with malolactic conversion allowed to complete. The result is a white with the domaine's characteristic tension, citrus drive and chalky finish, and rather more substance than village Rully usually offers.

Ready from release and it will improve over a few years. Serve at 10–12°C with grilled fish, roast chicken or fresh goat's cheese.
