Vintage Character The 2020 vintage in Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise delivered exceptional quality, thanks to a warm, sunny growing season that produced ripe, concentrated fruit balanced by vibrant acidity.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 91 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Vincent Dureuil-Janthial Rully 'Les Margotés' Premier Cru shines as a refined Chardonnay from one of the region’s most respected producers. Aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and acacia blossom unfold on the nose, complemented by subtle notes of hazelnut and a distinctive chalky minerality that reflect the vineyard’s limestone-clay soils and southeast exposure. On the palate, the wine is supple yet energetic, offering harmonious layers of orchard fruit, citrus, and a hint of fresh brioche, all enveloped in a creamy texture and lifted by a saline, persistent finish. This elegant white pairs beautifully with pan-seared sea bass, creamy langoustine risotto, or a simple goat cheese tart, enhancing both delicate and savory flavors without overwhelming them.
