Domaine de la Folie - Rully Rouge - Clos de Bellecroix - Magnum 2024
Domaine de la Folie, located on the sunny slopes of Rully in the Côte Chalonnaise region, has embodied the elegance and precision of great Burgundy wines for generations. Combining family tradition with contemporary standards, the estate cultivates its vineyard while respecting the natural balance of the limestone and clay soils, producing grapes of exemplary purity. Each vintage is born with a spirit of authenticity and finesse, faithful to the expression of the terroir.
The Rully Rouge Clos de Bellecroix 2024, presented here in magnum format, illustrates the estate's quest for harmony and depth. Made exclusively from old Pinot Noir vines grown on a historic clos, the wine has benefited from meticulous plot-by-plot vinification and partial aging in oak barrels, preserving the freshness of the fruit while giving it a silky structure. The 2024 vintage, marked by a steady summer and ideal maturity, reveals a pure and delicious expression of the grape variety.
Upon tasting, the nose opens with vibrant aromas of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and violet, enhanced by a subtle woody note. The palate seduces with its velvety texture and precision: the fruit dominates, ample and precise, supported by fine tannins and balanced acidity. The finish, long and racy, evokes the undergrowth and warm stone, signature of the Rully terroir. This magnum will gain in complexity over time, promising a beautiful aging potential.
It will perfectly accompany roast beef fillet, mildly spiced duck, or mushroom risotto. Serve slightly chilled, between 15 and 16°C, after a brief airing.
Grape variety: Pinot Noir
