Importer notes from North Berkely Imports:

"The talents of winemaker Vincent Dureuil in Rully are such that it’s easy to forget that there are others making wine in the Côte Chalonnaise. But there just is no other artist in the region that faithfully crafts Burgundy with as much purity, elegance or character as does Dureuil.

Not only is Dureuil a gifted winemaker, but also he is blessed with some exemplary older-vine vineyards that for years have been cared for organically—a higher level of attention that sets Dureuil qualitatively apart from the pack. His delicate touch translates each individual terroir into a perfect liquid picture of what the best of Rully—and the best of Burgundy, for that matter—can be."

About the cuvee:

"This selection of “younger” vines (on average, 50 years old; in contrast to the “vieilles vignes” selection, which averages a century per vine) delivers all the depth and concentration of Vincent’s older-vine wine with an added energy and verve on the palate. Still a “baby” Montrachet, anyway you slice it. Exceptional."
