Rully 2005

Grape Variety : Chardonnay

Soil : Mix of clay and limestone

Site : On the hill in the heart of Côte Chalonnaise, the "terroirs" of Rully are perfectly suited for Chardonnay.

The Vintage 2005 : Exceptional after a superb growing season - cold winter, rainy spring followed by hot and dry summer. Grapes picked at optimum ripeness and in perfect health, hence a minimum sorting was required.

Tasting : Bright gold colour with emerald tinges. Aromas of pale fleshed fruit mixed with honey and enhanced by a beautiful minerality. Refreshing, lively and well-balanced. Good structure enhanced by a delicate minerality. Good persistence.

Food pairing : To be enjoyed with charcuterie and poultry as well as some cheeses (comté, goat cheeses...)
