Domaine de Villaine Rully Blanc 1er Cru 2021
$156.00
Aubert de Villaine is a reluctant legend. Co-owner of Domaine de la Romanée Conti, one of the judges at the “Tasting of Paris,” and owner of today’s allocations from Domaine de Villaine which is nestled in the Côte Chalonnaise (smack dab between Chassagne-Montrachet and Santenay to the north and Rully and Mercurey to the south), Villaine has spent a life quietly dedicated to excellence in farming and winemaking.
Domaine de Villaine has been the perfect vehicle for Aubert to explore his love of winemaking over the past few decades without the international reputation (and prices) of DRC. Today, the domaine is run by Aubert’s nephew Pierre de Benoist, who shares his uncle’s love of organic agriculture and terrior driven winemaking. The wines they make are pure Burgundy and still offer an exceptional value in a category that rarely sees any.
This wine is a blend of six mature Rully premier cru parcels (Grésigny, Montpalais, Les Margotés, Rabourcé, Raclot, and Cloux) and is a classic reductive Burgundy. It has great texture and mouthfeel with just enough oak presence that is offset by a solid fruit core. Perfect for drinking young or cellaring.
