DOMAINE JEAN FÉRY & FILS is a family-run winery located in the beautiful village of Échevronne between Beaune and Nuits-Saint- Georges. The vineyards span over 14 hectares (34 acres) from the north to the south of Burgundy in famous appellations.
Jean-Louis took over his parents'estate in 1988 and made his childhood dream come true: providing the family estate with the means to develop further by performing the necessary construction work and investments while purchasing new vineyards. He now dedicates all his time to the vineyards. The vineyards are farmed according the principles of organic farming (they have been certified by ECOCERT since 2011), which requires a great deal of dedication and physical labor. Jean-Louis organizes the work of the laborers in every plot of the estate all year long. His unwavering love for Burgundy’s terroirs leads him to constantly acquire new vineyards in order to enrich the estate’s range of growing areas... and to give everyone pleasure...
The estate is now in the hands of Jean-Louis’s sons, Frédéric and Laurent Féry.
DOMAINE JEAN FÉRY & FILS manages vineyards in many different villages in Burgundy, representing a genuine mosaic of climats over a surface of 14 hectares (34 acres).
Character and personality
The Jean Fery & Fils Rully Premier Cru 'La Pucelle' Blanc 2022 is a white Burgundy wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, originating from the "La Pucelle" Premier Cru vineyard in the Rully appellation of the Côte Chalonnaise.
The vineyards in Rully, particularly the Premier Cru sites, are located on well-exposed slopes with clay-limestone soils, providing ideal conditions for Chardonnay and contributing to the wines' finesse and remarkable aromatic complexity.
Rully Premier Cru whites are known to develop complex aromas of honey, hazelnut, and white truffle with age, and can be kept for 5 to 10 years, or even longer for good vintages.
The aromas are more fruit-driven than the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune 2022 just tasted but there's still a flinty aroma and a hint of toasty oak.
There's gentle and pure citrus.
Rounded and relatively soft in the mouth and just a slight bitterness on the finish, though that does add to the already present freshness.
Tastes as if there is some oak influence here but it is subtle.
Slightly sour on the finish.
Culinary Recommendation: To serve 12 C - 14 C. Good match with raw or baked fish, cooked seafood, but also with poultry or veal in sauce, terrines and pâtés, cheeses Camembert, Gruyère or Brie
