Producer: Maison Chanzy

Maison Chanzy is a highly respected Burgundian producer, their wines are a classical demonstration of premium vineyard sites in Côte Chalonnaise, Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits.

Their range has been carefully engineered by winemaker Max Blondelle, whose primary task is to create wines that eloquently communicate their respective terroir, whilst remaining hands-off in his approach. As such, Chanzy are one of the few Burgundy producers to achieve Haute Valeur Environnementale level 3; the most highly regarded certification for agriculture in France.

Rully vineyards stretch for about four kilometers from Chagny where it has a few climats, to the southern limit of the Rully commune where it adjoins the Mercurey vineyards. This area has a remarkable limestone terroir.
The red wines, which are in the minority, are tender and fruity with a beautiful liveliness that underlines their exquisite minerality.

 

Tasting Note

Rully Rouge has a beautiful ruby colour. On the nose, very open expressing pure fruit: strawberry and raspberry with small bit of licorice connecting the lot. On the palate one perceives the acidity, yet the sensations are still fruity, but may return to a slightly more acidulous fruit, while the medium length finish is very clean and engaging.

Food Matching

This is a perfect match for meats with a strong flavour such as chicken livers or kidneys.
