Domaine De Villaine Rully 1er Cru Montpalais comes from a young vine already cultivated organically. Like all the Premier Crus of the Rully appellation, it is located in the heart of one of the best exposed slopes of the Appellation, in the south-east. This typicality of the terroir gives wines with a frank and fruity character, sometimes mineral but always possessing a fine and dense bouquet.
Domaine de Villaine was established in 1971 by Aubert and Pamela de Villaine, also co-directors of Romanée‑Conti . Located in Bouzeron, Côte Chalonnaise, it became a benchmark for golden Aligoté, earning its own Bouzeron AOC in 1998 . The estate cultivates multiple grape varieties (Aligoté, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir), choosing sites by soil: Aligoté on limestone slopes, Chardonnay on clay . Winemaking emphasizes large oak vats with lees aging and minimal intervention . The result: terroir-driven wines that are vibrant, fresh and salivating, beautifully expressing the water and minerality of their ancient marine soils .
