Rully 1er Cru Preaux, Domaine Jacqueson Burgundy, France 2022

A beautifully elegant and refined Premier Cru Burgundy from the renowned Domaine Paul & Marie Jacqueson in the Côte Chalonnaise. Brilliant ruby red in colour, the nose reveals enticing aromas of ripe red cherries, wild raspberries and strawberries, complemented by delicate floral notes of violet and peony, subtle sweet spice and a hint of woodland earthiness. The palate is wonderfully expressive and well-balanced, offering generous flavours of juicy red berries, black cherry and a touch of cassis, supported by fine, silky tannins and vibrant acidity. Gentle oak influences add complexity and depth, leading to a long, graceful and beautifully persistent finish with lingering notes of spice and delicate minerality.

Drinking beautifully now, with the structure and balance to develop further through to approximately 2032–2035 under good storage conditions.
