The 2022 La Croix de Brully Rully Clos des Mollepierres is a Chardonnay from the Côte Chalonnaise in Burgundy, a region increasingly recognised for producing wines that offer exceptional value and a strong sense of terroir. Sourced from the Clos des Mollepierres vineyard in Rully, this wine reflects the appellation's reputation for crafting fresh, mineral-driven white wines with Burgundian character and precision.

The vineyard is planted on limestone-rich soils that are particularly well suited to Chardonnay, contributing both freshness and structure. The warm and favourable conditions of the 2022 vintage produced healthy, ripe fruit while retaining sufficient acidity to preserve balance and aromatic definition.

The wine opens with aromas of lemon zest, green apple and white peach, complemented by notes of white flowers, crushed stone and subtle hints of hazelnut. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely textured, with vibrant acidity supporting a core of citrus and orchard fruit. A distinct mineral character carries through to the clean, persistent finish, providing both energy and elegance.

The 2022 La Croix de Brully Rully Clos des Mollepierres showcases the qualities that have made Rully one of Burgundy's most respected villages outside the Côte de Beaune. The combination of ripe fruit, freshness and limestone-driven minerality results in a wine that is approachable in its youth yet capable of developing additional complexity over time.

This wine pairs particularly well with oysters, shellfish, grilled fish, roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes and soft-ripened cheeses. Its balance of fruit and acidity makes it highly versatile at the table.
