Rully Premier Cru Les Préaux

Rully produces slightly less red wine than white, but our exclusive red - Les Préaux - is a Premier Cru made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in a tiny vineyard on the hill behind the imposing Château Rully. Jean-Claude first does a cold maceration before a 15-day fermentation followed by 12 months' ageing in oak before bottling.

The wine has a bright ruby/purple colour and an elegant bouquet with notes of violets and cherries. Ripe fruit flavours of raspberry and cherry dominate a palate with a hint of spice from the oak, underscored with soft tannin and fine acidity. Ready to drink immediately, it will benefit from a few months of bottle ageing, and will keep well for up to 10 years if carefully cellared. Best served just below room temperature, it goes very well with charcuterie, grilled or roast meat, and mild, hard cheeses.
