“Luxuriously sumptuous in decadently ripe red fruits, this has a beautiful nose of fine spice, violets, mulberries and boysenberries. The elegant structure is perfectly tempered with filmy tannins flowing seamlessly with lifting freshness.” 94 points, Christy Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin Burgundy Report

Diam. Clos du Chapître is a densely planted one-hectare monopole behind the family house and cellars within the Rully Premier Cru Chapître, which is enclosed by a two-metre-high stone wall. Jancis Robinson, MW has written that the wines from this site “offer proof that the Côte Chalonnaise can now field wines of serious interest to those raised on Côte d’Or wines.” This year, the wine aged in oak barrels (10% new) for 12 months and settled in tank before bottling.
