Rully White Les Villeranges 2020 - Faiveley
Direct from the property - Domaine Faiveley
THE VINTAGE
2020 is a sunny vintage but the wines show a lot of freshness and no trace of over-ripeness. The winter was mild with very little rainfall. In spring, there were significant frosts but the low humidity in the air preserved the vines. After a second cold period in mid-May, the summer was very dry except for a few isolated storms (Nuits-Saint-Georges - Vougeot). We started the harvest on August 19th, a historically early date, and finished on September 1st.
CHARACTERISTIC OF THE APPELLATION
The village of Rully has been inhabited since ancient times and its wine has long been appreciated. In 1629, King Louis XIII received 22 bottles of Rully wine as a gift during his visit to Chalon-sur-Saône. The white wine of Rully is nowadays one of the most important appellations of the Côte Chalonnaise.
TASTING
Dark ruby color with purple highlights. The nose opens with aromas of fresh red fruits and spices accompanied by woody touches. In the mouth, the attack is supple and continues on fruity aromas. Slightly tannic, this wine is well balanced and expresses with delicacy the aromas of Pinot Noir.

VINIFICATION & MATURING
The grapes are cut and sorted by hand. The proportions of de-stemming and whole grapes vary with each vintage. The grapes are punched down twice a day to extract their color, tannins and aromas from the skins. After 15 to 19 days of vatting, the alcoholic fermentation is completed. The free-run wine is drained by gravity, while a slow and gentle pressing of the marc results in a press wine of great purity. For 12 months, we mature our wines in French oak barrels (10% of which are new) selected for the fineness of their grain and their moderate toasting in our cellars with a natural and constant hygrometry and temperature.
