Premier Cru Rully Rouge Preaux Pinot Noir 2022 – Jacqueson Burgundy

Domaine Jacqueson Rully 1er Cru ‘Préaux’ Pinot Noir 2022: Elegant Burgundy Red

Experience the refined charm of authentic Burgundy with Domaine Jacqueson’s 2022 Rully 1er Cru ‘Préaux’. Crafted from meticulously hand-harvested Pinot Noir grapes grown in one of Rully’s most esteemed Premier Cru vineyards, this wine captures the essence of its prestigious terroir.

Expect an alluring bouquet where vibrant wild strawberry and ripe red cherry aromas mingle gracefully with subtle forest floor notes and gentle spice. On the palate, discover a beautifully balanced structure: silky-smooth tannins carry juicy red berry flavors across a medium-bodied frame, leading to a sophisticated finish marked by lingering earthy undertones – a hallmark of exceptional Rully Rouge.

This elegant expression of Pinot Noir showcases traditional Burgundian craftsmanship. The winemaking process honors authenticity: cold maceration enhances fruit purity, followed by indigenous yeast fermentation and gentle maceration. Maturation for 12 months in French oak barrels (20% new) adds subtle complexity without overpowering the delicate fruit, finishing with egg-white fining for clarity while avoiding filtration to preserve depth.

Perfectly suited for discerning enthusiasts seeking a sophisticated yet approachable red Burgundy, its graceful structure makes it incredibly food-friendly. Elevate your dining experience by pairing it beautifully with classic dishes like herb-roasted duck complemented by cherry sauce, rich mushroom pastries (vol-au-vents), an artisan charcuterie board featuring soft-rind cheeses like Brie or Camembert, or even herb-crusted pork tenderloin.

Discover the distinct character of this premier cru Pinot Noir from Rully in France’s revered Côte Chalonnaise region – an outstanding choice for savoring now or allowing to develop further complexity with careful cellaring.
