RULLY 1er CRU, Cloux Blanc
Chardonnay 100%
The area Cloux is located just on top of the Chapitre on clay-limestone soils more and more clear as you rise on the slope. As for the Mont Palais, the wine is fermented and aged in oak barrels during 18 months. Then the wine is bottled after a light filtration.
This fine and fruity wine also shows mineral notes and a great ctructure on the mouth.
To serve at 12° with Comté or goat cheese.
(Allen Meadows 90-92) 2019 Rully “Les Cloux”: Deft wood influence can be found on the white orchard fruit aromas that are laced with hints of citrus zest and acacia blossom. The succulent and slightly denser flavors possess good dry extract that imparts a sappy texture to the saline-inflected finale that is also quite dry and youthfully austere. This too will need at least some patience as there is fine development potential. Worth checking out. (90-92)/2025+
