A vibrant, energetic core of long even fruit layered and complex, particularly for a wine at this price point. A fine fragrance, and delicate perfume entance. Sophistication tannins and playful cleansing edge and a little spice. It will certainly benefit from a day open or an early decant in its youth. Juicy, thirst-quenching and simply delicious. Plenty more to come from a very, very good wine!Paul Kaan, Wine Decoded Sept 2024The 2022 Rully du Clos de Bellecroix Cuvée Marey comes f
The 2023 Rully du Clos de Bellecroix Cuvée Marey, raised in 25% new oak, has more intensity on the nose than the regular cuvée. Blackcurrant and raspberry open, leaning more toward the latter as it opens in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip, lightly spiced with a dash of black pepper toward the finish. Enjoy this over the next decade. Drink: 2026-2036Neal Martin, Vinous 90 PointsAged in ex-white barrels. Super fun vino, with a lick of spice. Excellent fruit
The 2023 Rully Blanc Clos du Chaigne ler Cru has less wood influence than the previous year due to a different type of charring to the barrels with lower heat. It has a forward and vigorous bouquet with patisserie and light peach skin scents. There is more aromatic presence than the Clos la Folie. Quite spicy and phenolic, the palate is well balanced with a keen line of acidity and a persistent finish. This has great potential. Drink: 2025-2035
Neal Martin, Vinous 91 PointsA big step
Along with the likes of Dureuil-Janthial and Jaeger-Defaix, Domaine de la Folie is showing just how much potential there is in the Côte Chalonaise. Their top white the 1er Cru 'Clos St Jacques' rests in a state of grace. A line of fine acid balances elegant, transparent fruit of great depth and length. Florals and citrus are weave into an array of complex aromas. Seamless. It's been made by a clever hand!Paul Kaan, Wine Decoded Sept 2024The 2022 Rully Clos St. Jacques 1er Cru comes
The 2023 Rully Clos St. Jacques ler 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!).
