The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine The Domaine Vincent Dureuil-Janthial, a jewel in Rully, is one of the most esteemed and compelling estates in Burgundy. A vanguard of the Côte Chalonnaise, Vincent Dureuil-Janthial is a dedicated and meticulous winemaker, crafting wines of exceptional precision.

Each of his cuvées thus reflects a mastery of craft, made from healthy and ripe grapes handpicked to embody their origin. These dazzling wines, both village-level and premier crus, fully express the essence of their terroirs.
Wine From a 1.70 hectare walled vineyard, an absolutely magical place, the 2020 white Rully 1er Cru Le Meix Cadot displays a classy, crystalline and fresh nose, expressing the purity of the clay-limestone. There is tension and energy in a concentrated frame of matured fruit, with a radiant freshness and woody background. If it seems tight at this stage of evolution, it will unfold with a few years in bottle. Ten years of aging will make it sublime. Rated 94/100 RVF.
