Domaine de Villaine Rully 1er Cru Les Margotés Blanc

82,90 €

Les Margotés is an outstanding vineyard plot in the southern part of Rully, offering a complete and striking expression of authentic Burgundian Chardonnay. Rich and multi-layered, with vibrancy and energy derived from its cool site, it displays all the hallmarks of its noble origin. The intensity of Les Margotés is enhanced by the subtle “kiss” of aging in foudres, while a refined spicy dimension perfectly complements its crystalline, pure fruit. Pierre de Benoist’s gentle, non-interventionist approach is reflected in a great wine that can already be enjoyed today, yet also rewards those who choose to cellar it, evolving beautifully in bottle over 5 to 8 years.

More info

The Les Margotés 1er Cru is one of the winery’s most recent investments in the vineyards of Rully, with a southeast exposure, and was vinified for the first time in 2015. For this wine, Pierre de Benoist uses oak foudres both for vinification and ageing, which lasts a total of 18 months. Whole-bunch vinification brings exceptional purity and elegance to the fruit expression. The wine shows excellent ripeness and perfectly integrated oak. With time, the fruit and the rich, creamy texture will harmonize, leading to a more classic expression with a smoky, mineral character and high finesse.
