Louis Latour - Rully 2019 | Monsieur Touton Selection

Tasting notes

Our Rully Blanc 2017 reveals a beautiful pale yellow colour. On the nose, this lovely wine offers broiled and smoked notes with subtle hints of almond, vanilla and mango. The mouth, ample and fresh, underlines aromas of yellow fruits and almond.

Description

Rully is the first village in the Cote Chalonnaise as you move south out of the Cote-d'Or, where the soils are a mixture of clay/limestone to pure limestone, ideal for the growing of Chardonnay. Owing to the relatively small output and the widely varying orientation of the vines, a consistent supply of good quality Rully is hard to come by, hence its appearance on the Maison Louis Latour list only in vintages of universally acknowledged quality.
