Rully, Blanc, Clos St Jacques, 1er Cru, 2023
The tweaks here involve a finer selection of barrels with lighter toast, refinement rather than a change, and the result is a wine with the finest of shapes in the range. Elongated, impeccably balanced with a very fine extract and an intensity that creeps up on you. Gently handled, grown-up Rully that marries fine, ripe confit citrus notes with touches of smoke and fine oak. Top stuff. Another Domaine de la Folie Monopole. A splendid, east-facing stony vineyard of vines aged between 70 and 80 years old. Aged in oak barrels, 20% of which are new.
critic reviews
The 2023 Rully Clos St. Jacques 1er Cru comes from a 1.69-hectare monopole and was matured in 20% new oak. It has a very aromatic bouquet with tropical fruit, passion fruit and touches of white peach. There is wonderful definition and vigor here. The palate is well balanced with a silver thread of acidity and notes of lemon thyme and orange pith, very harmonious on the finish. This is an excellent Clos Saint-Jacques (not from Gevrey!).
