Why it matters
The producer
Rully En Rosey places a named Côte Chalonnaise red beside Bourgogne Chardonnay Les Fortunés and Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru in Maison Chanzy's range. The domaine works with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, using cold maceration before fermentation for its red wines and barrel ageing for selected bottles. Les Fortunés is marked by freshness and Chardonnay fruit, while the red wines extend from Rully to the Côte de Beaune and the Grand Cru vineyard of Charmes Chambertin.
Place and vineyards
Where the wines begin
Maison Chanzy's home village is Bouzeron in the Côte Chalonnaise. Rully En Rosey comes from the highest elevation vineyard in Rully, where the cooler position produces freshness in the wine. The range also includes a red Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune wine carrying a Côte de Beaune appellation, placing Rully's named vineyard beside a broader regional Burgundy address.
