As on all its crus, the domaine vinifies with no search for extraction or oak, with indigenous yeasts and ageing in mostly old barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe domaine was founded in 1971 at Bouzeron by Aubert and Pamela de Villaine. Aubert de Villaine co-managed the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti from 1974 to 2022, and applied here, in the Côte Chalonnaise, the same demanding standards as at Vosne-Romanée. The vineyard, of around twenty hectares, has been farmed under certified organic agriculture since the late 1990s, one of the first conversions in Burgundy. Pierre de Benoist, Aubert's nephew, is in charge of technical management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Burgundy, Côte Chalonnaise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rully 1er Cru Raclot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDomaine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Domaine A. et P. de Villaine, in Bouzeron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay 100 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e White wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eViticulture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified organic agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pale gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candied lemon, lime blossom, toasted hazelnut, iodine note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh and precise, fine substance, finish lengthened by a ripe acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and cellaring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe this Rully 1er Cru Raclot at 12 to 13 °C.
