2022, Domaine de Villaine, RULLY, 1er Cru, 'Gresigny' BIO
Domaine notes: With this wine, we are in the same mineral vein as our Rully 1er Cru Margotés. Even if it seems a little less "compact" at the beginning of the tasting, when we warm up the glass a little, we sense on the nose an aromatic depth of the Chardonnay, a very pure expression, more precise of its terroir, all inter-linked and carried by a touch of oak coming from the vinification and ageing in barrels and demi-muids. The palate, as well as being elegant, is full and harmonious. The quality of the fruits from this 80-year-old vine, give the feeling of power and depth. The finish is surprisingly long, fresh and very saline with a light bitter note. To taste in two or three years for the fruit or after five years to discover or rediscover the quality of the rather exceptional terroir.
