Allen Meadows, Burghound
Deft wood influence can be found on the white orchard fruit aromas that are laced with hints of citrus zest and acacia blossom. The succulent and slightly denser flavors possess good dry extract that imparts a sappy texture to the saline-inflected finale that is also quite dry and youthfully austere. This too will need at least some patience as there is fine development potential. Worth checking out.
Rully's Les Cloux vineyard is located just south of the village, with south-easterly exposure on the sirloin cut of Rully 1er Cru overlooking the plain of Saône. Les Cloux is home to Defaix’s oldest vines, which were planted in 1944 on the classic clay/limestone mix found across the best sites in Burgundy. Since 2009 these old vines have been managed organically and are currently in their third year of Ecocert certification. Within Rully, Les Cloux is a site known for its ability to balance elegant and mouth-watering flesh with tangy grip and fine length—and in 2018 you can take that to the bank.
