Jean-Francois Protheau ‘Les Grésigny’
Rully Premier Cru
2008
From a tiny vineyard this Premier Cru Rully is soft, luscious and full of flavour. Drinking brilliantly well, this very affordable high quality white Burgundy will remain at its peak for at least another 3 years. Most really good Rully is kept a secret from us by Burgundians who drink it themselves!
The Press
‘[Wine of the month] A wonderful nose reminiscent of melting butter on white toast, drips of honey and accompanying white fruit. It has a leesy palate, with vanilla oak flavours and layers of dried mango and pineapple. All these flavours linger in the mouth on the clean fresh finish.’—Decanter Magazine ‘This is an attractive white: firm, stony yet floral and charming as it opens out.’—Andrew Neather, The Evening StandardOur tasting notes
A lovely floral nose with hints of lime, lemon and peach . On the palate it is fresh, crisp, round and rich with excellent minerality. A real pleasure to drink on its own and great with seafood.Wine data
