Excellent Aligoté from the only village with an appellation for it. Crackling with zip and zing - but seriously concentrated too. Really good feel, sleek and textured - the fruit is ripe but there is some savour too adding another dimension. Pears and white melon flesh. Powerful, full-bore Aligoté. From very old vines planted in 1937. 100% wood, but in neutral, old barrels of 5-7 years age. L&S (Nov 2021)

Pale colour with a faint green touch. Very pretty nose, floral and fresh, plus some apples. Then the palate shows an additional sensuality, vines from 1937, all in older wood, fills out the back end extremely well.

P & M Jacqueson
The domaine was founded in 1946 by Henri Jacqueson and passed to his son Paul. Marie joined her father in 2006 and since 2015 she and her brother Pierre run the estate, now known simply as P&M Jacqueson. The domaine consists of 18 hectares of vines, mostly in Rully, but also 5 in Mercurey and some in Bouzeron. The team also tend vines owned by their neighbours and make some beautiful wines from other peoples' fruit that they themselves have worked all year.
Traditional methods meticulously applied inspire everything they do: the grapes are harvested by hand and vinified in classical fashion, before an élevage in barrel (up to 25% new wood for the reds, just 20% for the 1er Cru Whites). The domaine has become adept at a sophisticated use of barrels, the élevage here is key to the quality they consistently achieve.

Slightly paler than the Crays, this is all in finesse. Slightly leaner too - a blade-like slipping wet stone and rock juice. It's immensely attractive without being as 'large' as the Crays.
