Small history

French wines > Burgundy wines > Côte chalonnaise > Rully

Adorned with a castle that has belonged to the same family for six centuries, Rully (pronounced Ruilly) is a very old village where the Dukes of Burgundy possessed vines since the Middle Ages. Rully was granted an AOC in 1939 and produces Village and Premier Cru appellations in both red and white wines. The white wines are filled with aromas of hedgerow flowers, and full of fruit, lively and well-rounded on the palate. The red bouquet offers notes of black and red fruits, plus liquorice, lilac and rose petal. A balance of tannins and fruit give the wine a defined structure.
