Domaine David Lefort

Rully La Chaume 2019

Rully

Trade Tools

One of the first wines David began producing, starting in 2013. Sourced from two hectares in Rully, the site displays a duality below prime ripening exposure and a microclimate that favors cooling winds. The result is a surprising amount of balance and freshness that permeats vintage to vintage.

Vineyard

La Chaume is at the southern end of the Rully appellation, on a sunny plateau near Mercurey. Less wind protection allows for a generally cooler site. The soil is deep and rich in clay.

Winemaking

La Chaume is done in two Demi Muids that are new.  There is a thickness and richness that comes through in the wines from this site.

Vintage

A strong vintage, with ripe fruit and strong yields despite a relatively dry season.

Tasting Note

A beautiful blend of ripe orchard fruit, refreshing minerality and mellow creaminess, with considerate oak use rounding out the profile.
