Rully

Traditional elegance and the Burgundian way of life

In the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise, Rully epitomises the elegance of Burgundy’s great wine-growing villages. Nestled amongst rolling hillsides and a rich heritage, the village is world-renowned for its wines, and more particularly for its major role in the history of Crémant de Bourgogne.

Its narrow streets, stone houses and vineyards stretching across the hillsides form a landscape that is emblematic of Burgundy’s wine-growing region. Here, the vineyards are an integral part of daily life and have shaped the area’s identity for centuries.

The village also charms visitors with its remarkable heritage, dominated by Rully Castle – an iconic silhouette visible from the vineyards – and by its proximity to the Canal du Centre, which offers a different way to explore the landscapes of the Côte Chalonnaise.

Rully offers an authentic immersion in the Burgundian way of life, just a few kilometres from Chalon-sur-Saône.

A castle that has stood the test of time

Rully Castle boasts a rare distinction: it has been inhabited by the same family since it was built, passed down from generation to generation for nearly nine centuries. This exceptional continuity contributes to the village’s unique character and spirit.
