|---|---|
| Description: | All freshness and fruit, this Rully is very representative of the Burgundian style of the Pinot noir. Pleasant and fine, it can be poured slightly cool. Didier Defaix of Defaix Frères represents the 4th generation growers and the 2nd generation as an estate-bottled Domaine. The domaine was started in 1955 with only 2ha on Premiere Cru Côte de Lechet, the Domaine has now 27ha. It is currently run by brothers Didier and Sylvain Defaix, and HÊlène Jaeger-Defaix (Didier's wife). HÊlène inherited the 4.5ha Domaine from her great-aunt in 2003 and HÊlène and Didier vinified their first vintage in 2004. A historic family, HÊlène's great-grandfather, Henri Niepce, was instrumental in promoting and achieving Rully's AOC status in the 1930s. Since 2009, the domaine has been employing organic and sustainable methods in the vineyards and utilization of natural indigenous yeast for all fermentations. |
