Vincent Dureuil Janthial, Rully, Blanc 2023

The 2023 Rully Village is the usual blend of four lieux-dits. This is more introverted on the nose and demands coaxing from the glass. It's quite malic in style, with scents of grassy meadow. There's a fine delineation. The palate is taut, fresh and quite mineral-driven, with just a very subtle reduction. It has a poised, quite intense, lemongrass-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth. It's a worthy follow-up to the splendid 2022.
