2022, Domaine de Villaine, RULLY, 1er Cru, 'Raclot', EN CONVESION BIODomaine notes: The nose of the Raclots smells of lemongrass and, as with Rabourc which is a few meters north, it can remain fresh even though it is a terroir which experiences strong heat. We perceive a certain complexity around the aromas that are rather exotic and yellow fruited. The palate is unctuous and fresh at the same time. The oak presence on the finish, supports the saline finish, which is slightly zesty, clean and rather compact. A wine
