Manually destemmed to retain the grapes and their pedicels intact, the 2017 Rully En Guesnes is one of the highlights of the range, offering up a classy bouquet of wild berries, dark chocolate, potpourri and spices. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with excellent depth at the core, bright acids and powdery structuring tannins. This is a superb red Rully that comes warmly recommended.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
We've been following young vigneron Vincent Dureuil for more many years now and he is simply the most talented grower and winemaker in the Cote Chalonaise, there is just no one doing what he does. His 2017s are otherworldly, in short, he is on the top of his game. These wines are just too good to miss and on par with any of the wines produced in the Cote de Nuits. In a recent tasting of Cote Chalonaise wines conducted by Wine Advocate, William Kelly proclaimed that, "Vincent Dureuil can make a strong claim to rank as the finest producer in the Côte Chalonnaise."
About the Producer
The talents of winemaker Vincent Dureuil in Rully are such that it's easy to forget that there are others making wine in the Cote Chalonnaise. But there just is no other artist in the region that faithfully crafts Burgundy with as much purity, elegance or character as does Dureuil. Not only is Dureuil a gifted winemaker, but also he is blessed with some exemplary older-vine vineyards that for years have been cared for organically - a higher level of attention that sets Dureuil qualitatively apart from the pack. His delicate touch translates each individual terroir into a perfect liquid picture of what the best of Rully - and the best of Burgundy, for that matter - can be.
