Domaine Paul et Marie Jacqueson
The adventurous and sportif Paul Jacqueson makes wines of impeccable quality, when not climbing in the Himalayas, close indeed to their much more expensive cousins on the Côte d'Or. His daughter Marie now looks after much of the winemaking. We have a particular fondness for the whites, and especially the Pucelle, which is a model of what a great Rully can be year after year. ![]() |

| 2010 RULLY 1er Cru La Pucelle Domaine Paul et Marie Jacqueson | |
| 75cl bottles, case of 12
From vines planted in 1992 and 1993. A mixture of limestone and clay. This is just so delightfully sleek. Smoothly, stonily mineral with delightful strain of sweet fruit. As always it is Puligny-like. Excellent. |

Domaine François Raquillet
François took over the running of this estate from his father, Jean, in 1984, and records show that the same family have made wine in Mercurey since the 1600s. With eleven hectares under vine, François has substantially reduced yields, introduced higher quality oak barrels and significantly increased the quality of wines made at this domaine. ![]() |

| 2010 RULLY 1er Cru Grésigny Domaine François Raquillet | |
| 75cl bottles, case of 12
Grésigny is tucked up under the 'Montagne de Montpalais', a strong soil full of stones and which, with its south-easterly exposition, gets fully ripe. Touches of ripe yellow fruit and even a hint of exotic spice with refreshing citrus and appealing density and length. This wine impressed many tasters at our 2010 Burgundy tasting in January 2012. |

Domaine François Lumpp
François and Isabelle Lumpp own this impeccable 16 hectare estate in Givry, a region which is so often overlooked by Burgundy lovers and yet which is capable of producing wines of exceptional quality as well as value. François is a passionate viticulturalist and places great emphasis on making the wine in the vineyard. He aims to pick at 'just ripe' rather than into overripe, and wants to make bright wines which are developed rather than masked by their time in barrel. Making the best wines in Givry, by some stretch, if he were in any other part of Burgundy he would be heralded as a super-star. Francois' reds are among the most popular red Burgundies we sell, but his whites also deserve recognition. ![]() |

| 2010 GIVRY Blanc Clos des Vignes Rondes Domaine François Lumpp | |
| 75cl bottles, case of 12
Round and quite full, but still very precise, with a tight, juicy apple acidity, very fresh and slightly floral. |

|
| 2010 MONTAGNY 1er Cru Jean-Marc Boillot | |
| 75cl bottles, case of 12
Supple, fat nearly to the point of being oily, confident opulent style with a good fresh finish. The usual appealing and very good value Jean-Marc Boillot style. |
