Domaine Faiveley Rully Blanc "Les Villeranges" 2011

A brilliant light-yellow color. A blend of mineral flinty aromas and very ripe fruit aromas gives a nice, fresh bouquet. This wine is very pleasant on the palate, sophisticated, and round at first, with a slightly acidic finish, which gives a beautiful freshness to the whole.

Chardonnay. Domaine Faiveley combines the principles of modern winemaking methods with the time honored traditions that have been practiced for centuries within their 19th century cellars. Each terroir and each vintage, benefits from special attention which makes the cuvees unique. Each bottle therefore becomes the faithful reflection of its terroir. The village of Rully has been inhabited since antiquity and its wine has been appreciated for a very long time. In 1629, when visiting Chalon-sur-Saone, King Louis XIII was given a present of 22 'feuillettes' or half barrels of Rully wine. Today, the white wine of Rully is still one of the key reference points in Cote Chalonnaise.
