2020 Dureuil-Janthial Rully Maizières Blanc
It’s not every day that we spotlight Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise. Vincent Dureuil in Rully is a favorite producer among Burgundy’s circle of vignerons. With fervent backing from wine critic William Kelley, he’s getting his long-overdue spotlight in the mainstream. In short, these humble Rully wines rise to the occasion of white Burgundy’s top echelon.
Tasting Note:
"Aromas of crisp green orchard fruit, peach, white flowers and nutmeg introduce the 2020 Rully Maizières Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and charming wine with a broad attack that segues into a fleshy, vibrant core, concluding with a penetrating finish. As readers may remember, this sunny, gently sloping parcel is where Dureuil typically begins his harvest."
