FAIVELEY RULLY LES VILLERANGES 2020

Rully produces mostly red wine, which makes Faiveley's white-focused 5.65-hectare Les Villeranges holding quietly unusual for the Côte Chalonnaise. The vineyard sits on calcareous and marly soils low in iron — a composition that pushes minerality forward rather than fruit weight. Chardonnay from these parcels is fermented and aged to preserve freshness, showing up in the glass with ripe stone fruit, flint-driven mineral character, and a palate that balances roundness against a clean, acidic finish. Straightforward Burgundy at a price point well below the Côte de Beaune with genuine mineral tension.
